The Chicago style of acting, exemplified by actors like Gary Sinise, Joan Allen, and John Malkovich from the Steppenwolf Theatre Company, is characterized by a raw, intense authenticity and a deep commitment to character immersion. This approach often emphasizes ensemble work, where actors collaborate closely to create a cohesive performance, prioritizing emotional truth and realism over traditional theatricality.
