The Building Stage
We are a theater company and performance space located in Chicago's industrial West Loop.
The Building Stage works from pre-existing sources that reflect the world we live in. We transform those sources through rehearsal, creating on our feet, with no separation between play and production. This process allows us to highlight the rapport that is created between performers and audience in the space and time of performance. Our pieces do not simply tell narrative stories; instead, they p

After eight years, there are only three more performances before The Building Stage closes its doors forever.
It's hard to put into words what this means to us.
That's why we made "Dawn, Quixote." It is our farewell. It says what we cannot. And it does so in the language we are most comfortable with — that of the theater.
Thursday.
Friday.
Saturday.
And done.

This might be our last week in existence, but that didn't stop us from being nominated for two Jeff Awards.
Artistic Director Blake Montgomery who created and performed our production of "Charles Dickens Begrudgingly Performs 'A Christmas Carol.' Again" is the declared recipient in the Solo Performance category and is nominated in the New Adaptation category.
Our final Sunday Matinee is today at 4pm! We close up the show and the space next Saturday night, so if you are a daytime theatre type, join us today! Dawn, Quixote will be a perfect post-brunch activity.
Let us remind you. Six shows left. And then it's over.
Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
