Very nice piece --- I believe Steppenwolf quite deservedly won the Regional Theatre Tony Award awhile back, but for a non-profit to persevere throughout the past decades *and* consistently present great work, they should very much be celebrated.

Well done, BWW Editorial. This round-up reminded me of many of my favorite shows that got their start at Steppenwolf:

(Still shaken by the original production of "Bug", btw / eagerly awaiting the new production at MTC in a few weeks....)

Surprised "August Osage County" was not included in the piece.

It was almost twenty years ago! We're due for a revival.

We are indeed due for a Osage revival. Eat the fish!

I’m so glad that I got to see Downstate at Playwrights. Just devasting.
