James, Morris & Kutyla
Designed in collaboration with Steppenwolf designer Kevin Rigdon, this
two-level, 500-seat theatre is modeled on the classic American
playhouse with a single balcony and side boxes stepping down toward the
apron stage. The rough-hewn concrete and steel interior echoes the raw,
gritty nature of the acting company's work.
