The No Exit Café is a nondescript storefront across from the El tracks in Chicago’s Rogers Park neighborhood. Inside the small space a Broadway-sized production. That’s exactly what happens each weekend at Some Enchanted Evening: The Songs of Rodgers and Hammerstein.

The production is the work of the Theo Ubique Theatre Company. A few of the cast members came in recently to talk to Eight Forty-Eight’s Jason Marck and play some numbers.
