I am so bummed about that. I’ve loved that space ever since Broken Umbrella Theatre performed in it at Arts & Ideas and was so happy when it became the State House.

Went to a ska show there randomly a couple weeks ago. I hope they can find a new spot in the area, the vibe works really well for the city.
