About this audio guide
This guide to the Goodman Theatre in Chicago opens with Frank Sinatra sending his spaghetti back to the kitchen, and the man who carried the plate away: Arturo Petterino, who spent decades seating stars and mobsters at Chicago's grandest supper clubs, the Pump Room and Chez Paree. It follows how his name ended up on the red-booth Italian restaurant tucked into this landmark theater's corner, opened around 2001, its walls lined with caricatures of politicians, actors and playwrights. Look for your own face reflected among them before the curtain rises.
