On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek checks in with the executive director of 3Arts to learn about the organization’s efforts to support artists with disabilities. WDCB’s Leslie Keros has a special story about a jazz musician’s 20 year effort to study trailblazing pianist and composer Mary Lou Williams. The Dueling Critics, Kerry Reid and Jonathan Abarbanel, will join me to talk about Goodman Theatre’s world premiere, GOOD NIGHT, OSCAR (which stars Glen Ellyn native Sean Hayes). And later Gary spotlight’s a company that programs secret concerts all over Chicago and other cities.
