The Arts Section 04/26/20: Third Coast Percussion Pivots + Volumes Book Cafe Launches GoFunMe Campaign

On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek talks to Third Coast Percussion executive director David Skidmore about the Grammy-winning ensemble’s pivot to streaming concerts. Later in the program, Gary catches up with the owner of Chicago-based Volumes Book Café to learn more about the challenges facing independent bookstores during the pandemic. The Dueling Critics, Kerry Reid and Jonathan Abarbanel, stopped by remotely to talk about a new streaming production that’s part Shakespeare and part Super Mario Brothers. And we’ll hear how suburban comedians are dealing with the current restrictions.
