The Arts Section 07/23/23: Manwolves, MARIE & ROSETTA Review + Tony Bennett Obit

On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek puts a spotlight on the Chicago-based band Manwolves. The hard-to-define ensemble is entering a new phase as it prepares to play a big summer festival. The Dueling Critics, Kerry Reid and Jonathan Abarbanel, join Gary to talk about a new production that highlights Sister Rosetta Tharpe’s relationship with Marie Knight. Later in the show, Gary checks in with a program direction at the Donnelley Foundation to learn more about the challenges small arts organizations are still navigating in the aftermath of the pandemic pause. And we’ll look back at the life and career of Tony Bennett.
