They?ve teased and they?ve taunted, but on October 20, the new Dixon Place will finally open. Downtown?s most supportive works-in-progress space has inhabited something like a living room for the past 22 years, with mismatched couches, dubious air conditioning, and lots of heart. The new space, funded in part by the coins and bills dropped into a hard hat at every DP show over the last few years, features a main-stage theater that can seat up to 130, a lounge, and a separate rehearsal studio?it?s a luxury condo compared to the Chinatown squat conditions we?re used to, and well worth the wait.
