A new building could probably suit the needs of Chicago Shakespeare with less brain surgery and maybe at a lower cost. The Trahan-designed addition was beautiful, looks like it's been scrapped.
Honestly id prefer the tent over the design you posted. the tent provides a good contrast to the glassy building just to the east. it adds more charterer then another addition of glass. plus it feels like it fits the theme of the area, surrounded by grassy areas and the wheel.
