Chicago’s Mercury Theater Closes Permanently Due To Corona-Lockdown

THEATRE Posted: June 17, 2020 6:34 am

“Opened in 1920 as a silent film nickelodeon, the movie theater would undergo several retail business incarnations in the decades that followed. … It ‘reopened’ in 2011 under the current owner/leadership team as an Equity-affiliated commercial theater house, having since produced 25 plays including four world premieres.” – Chicago Sun-Times
