The West Village coffeehouse, located at 31 Cornelia Street, was initially imagined as a venue for poetry, folk music, and visual art exhibitions. The plays produced at the Cino, however, became most prominent, and it is now considered the "birthplace of Off-Off-Broadway".[1] Beginnings and early productionsJoe Cino was born into an Italian-American family, and moved from Buffalo, New York to be a dancer in New York City. After ten years, he used his $400 in savings and opened the "Caffe Cino Art Gallery".[2] Initially, Cino encouraged his friends to hang their artwork on the walls. That led to poetry readings, which led to staged readings and eventually to productions of plays.[3]During the early days of the Cino, plays were produced on the floor. A makeshift 8x8-foot stage was later created using milk cartons and carpet remnants. Productions were initially limited to 30 minutes, and the audience could stand anywhere. The space was only 18x30-feet, and audience members often perched atop the cigarette machine.[2] Admission was one dollar, and audience members were offered a coffee and an Italian pastry along with the show.[3] The fire (1965) and Joe Cino's death (1967)On Ash Wednesday of 1965, a fire destroyed the interior of the Cino. The building's structure was not affected. A new lighting system had recently been installed, along with the fireproofing of the Caffe's ceiling, which prevented the fire from spreading to the rest of the tenement building.[4] The official cause of the fire was a gas leak, but some suspected that Cino's lover set the fire. The community raised money by staging benefit performances while the Caffe was closed for renovations.[1] Ellen Stewart, founder of La MaMa Experimental Theatre Club, offered Cino and his staff a space to continue Caffe Cino productions on Sunday and Monday nights at her theater.[4] Joe Cino died three days after an attempted suicide in 1967. Some{{who|date=November 2018}} suspected that the attempt was due to the death of Cino's lover, John Torrey, and to his drug use.[2]{{Not in citation given|date=November 2018}} Notable contributorsThe Caffe Cino was an incubator for first-time directors, playwrights, actors, and lighting or set designers. Many continued to work in stage, screen, or both after the Cino closed. Notable contributors include: {{col-begin}}{{col-break}}
