Join us as we explore the unique aesthetic of storefront theater with Steep Theatre actor, co-founder and artistic director, Peter Moore and executive director, Kate Piatt-Eckert in a conversation moderated by Mark Larson, author of Ensemble: An Oral History of Chicago Theater. What is the history of storefront theater in Chicago? What role did it play shaping the Chicago theater movement? How does the physical size of a theater inform and shape artistic choices and impact the audience experience? What are the unique challenges and virtues of smaller performance spaces? How do storefront theaters define "growth" going forward?
Our friends at Women & Children First will have copies of the book available for sale, which Mark will be happy to sign during or post-discussion reception at The Boxcar.
