Keep – I have to agree with the nom that evidence on the web is pretty thin. I found that surprising. I would have thought that a theater company that has survived for 30 years in a major city like Chicago would have received a ton of coverage. Perhaps it used to exist and is now gone. Online newspaper archives only go back so far. For now, my keep !vote is provisional based on the number of world premieres, these reviews at Chicago Stage Review, and the number of Jefferson Awards – 13 awards and more nominations according to this page. If new evidence emerges I'll change it to a definite keep. If not I may have to reconsider. We have OTRS permission for material from the company, but we can't base the whole article on that. – Margin1522 (talk) 17:15, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
