Chicago’s Goodman Theatre announced Monday that Susan V. Booth, a former Goodman literary manager and currently the artistic director of the Alliance Theatre in Atlanta, will be the new artistic director of Chicago’s most prestigious theater company.Booth, who is directing the season opener at the Alliance, will take over at the Goodman at the beginning of October, although she said she has already begun speaking with Goodman staffers in preparation for her new role.

For the Goodman board, well aware of the fiscal challenges facing major regional theaters in the prolonged pandemic recovery, Booth surely represented a desire to find an artistic leader who also had direct experience steering a large and sometimes contentious institution. Booth’s hiring is quite different from the tack a previous Goodman board took in 1985 when it took a risk on hiring the maverick 33-year-old artistic director of a small, Chicago-style theater called Wisdom Bridge.
