The Arts Section 12/30/18: Happy New Year!

The Year Of In Chicago + Under the Radar Films

Gary Zidek

Happy New Year! On this edition of The Arts Section, we’ll look back at 2018.  Host Gary Zidek sits down with Mark Kelly, the Commissioner of Chicago’s Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events for a conversation about the recently completed “Year of Creative Youth” and the upcoming “Year of Chicago Theatre”. A little later, Gary catches up with Roget Ebert-dot-com film critic Nick Allen to talk about some of movies that may flown under your radar in 2018. And the Dueling Critics, Kelly Kleiman and special guest Kerry Reid, will stop by to review Chicago Shakespeare’s new A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM (and talk about their memories of Chicago theater in 2018).
