Even his barebones Wikipedia entry hints at the struggle facing the creation of a Chicago Theater Museum. Wanamaker conducted a long and often bitterly discouraging campaign. The results remain controversial. He also never doubted the value of the struggle and he inspired thousands to support his vision. You can see their names in the bricks of the Globe itself. Here is a “theater museum” with all the liveliness and relevance you can imagine. As we sort out our definition of “Museum,” I strongly recommend studying closely the kinds of programs that the Globe has designed and produced. Shouldn’t a Chicago theater museum, at the least, regularly produce the “classic” plays of the Chicago theatrical renaissance. I missed “Grease” and “Warp” and “American Buffalo” and “In the Belly of the Beast” and “Bleacher Bums” and “City on the Make” and “Grapes of Wrath.” I may not be interested in any theater museum that won’t help me see them.
