Wow…I’m embarassed to say that I wasn’t aware that McClurg had closed. For the 10 yrs I lived in the City, everytime a special-effects laden movie would come out, it simply meant Theatre 1 @ McClurg. While I’m in the burbs now, the imminent release of Episode III gave me the same thought, and I was keen to revisit the site of so many enjoyable evenings. Given the demise of this treasure, is there any other theater in Chicagoland that stands out and is worthy of being a destination for big-time movies like Theatre 1 once was? Please advise.
