Chicago Tribune: As I walked my dog near Wrigley Field the other night, the two of us stopped among the bars and the noise, and stood and stared outside 3408 N. Sheffield Ave. That address used to be the home of Stage Left Theatre. I started seeing theater there in 1995.
Stage Left was one of the great train-influenced theaters of Chicago: the roar of the “L” intensified, or punctuated, many a dramatic moment. It also used to be the perfect place to stand on the sidewalk outside and watch barhoppers wonder what was transpiring inside. At intermission, the action outside was often as interesting as the show.
