44 Kestrel Street

Your visit

Two rooms, one door, and a bar in each. Everything you need to know before you get here, and nothing you don't.

Getting here 44 Kestrel Street, two blocks off the Halsted stop. The 14 and 62 buses run past the corner until 1AM. Metered street parking after 6PM; the Warren Street garage is $9 flat with a ticket stub.

Box office Open Wed–Sat, 2–6PM, and from doors on show nights. Walk-up tickets are the same price you see online. Call 555-0163 for holds, wheelchair seats, or anything the website can't do.

Tickets on your phone Buy in about thirty seconds with Apple Pay or Google Pay. Your pass lives in your wallet, and the door scans it straight off the lock screen. Nothing to print, nothing to collect.
