On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary has a couple jumbo sized features. First, Gary catches up with Academy Award winner Louis Gossett Jr. He’s the star of the new indie film, THE CUBAN, which offers an intriguing multi-cultural and cross-generational look at the importance of compassion. Gary also spoke with the film’s director Sergio Navaretta. Later in the program, Gary profiles one of the country’s most innovative performance collectives. If you’re not familiar with Manual Cinema, you’re going to want to hear more about the group’s creative approach. And the Dueling Critics join Gary remotely to review Albany Park Theatre Project’s streaming offering, FEAST, and to talk about some recent theater developments.
