Oil Lamp Theater Announces Its Future Home at the Former Ten Ninety Brewing Co. in Downtown Glenview
Oil Lamp Pursues its "Light the Way" Campaign Vision with a New Permanent Home in Downtown Glenview

Oil Lamp Theater, currently at 1723 Glenview Road, announces its new future home will be at the former Ten Ninety Brewing Co. in Downtown Glenview, 1025 Waukegan Road. The opportunity to move to a larger performance space, that is adjacent to Oil Lamp Academy, became possible due to the founder of the Negaunee Foundation, client of Virginia Trux, who purchased the property as a personal project and looks forward to years of joy with Oil Lamp Theater.
At approximately 11,000 square feet, this new home will feature a warm and welcoming lobby, a flexible theater with seating for up to 150+ guests and thoughtfully designed spaces by Future Firm that will serve Oil Lamp’s artists, students and community.
This new location pursues the goals of the “Light the Way” fundraising campaign that was announced in September of last year. The campaign included a 2028 opening of the new venue, a $5 Million fundraising goal, the expansion of its arts education, strengthening essential staff and establishing a larger performance venue with the goal of remaining in downtown Glenview.
