In 1986, I was on a beach in Mexico and the “Jungle Theater” came into my mind. I came back and moved to Lake Street. I went around the corner from my apartment and saw an empty storefront and these empty apartments above it. So I rented it and set up in one of the empty apartments with a card table and a calendar. I put up butcher paper in the windows that said “Coming: Jungle Theater.” I had no big plans for it at all.
