The Distrikt of Lake Michigun: A Most Lamentable Comedy and Most Ridiculous Tragedy

Stage Left Theatre, the second-oldest ensemble-based theatre company in

Chicago, is pleased to announce its spring 2025 production of The Distrikt

of Lake Michigun: A Most Lamentable Comedy and Most Ridiculous

Tragedy (and also completely factual and also true). Written by Stage Left

ensemble member Stephanie Murphy and directed by ensemble member

Seth Wilson, this new play is the outrageous (mostly) true story of George

Streeter, one of the most famous rogues in the history of the Windy City. It

chronicles how Streeterville began as the get-rich-quick scheme of a

fast-talking con man and invites questions about how now, home to some

of the most expensive real estate in the city, things might not be as different

as we might hope.

Previews begin March 14. Opening night is March 28. The show runs

through April 27 at Water Tower Place, 835 N. Michigan Avenue, 6th floor,

Chicago, IL 60611. Tickets are available on the website at

stagelefttheatre.com, or at the following link:
