The Arts Section 06/23/24: Hokusai Exhibit Coming + Little Orphan Annie Turns 100

On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek has details on a big art exhibit coming to the western suburbs next summer. The Dueling Critics, Kelly Kleiman and Jonathan Abarbanel, reviewed a new play that mines 80s & 90s nostalgia for comedy. Later in the show, Gary looks at the history of Little Orphan Annie, who is turning 100 this summer. A new exhibit is shining a light on the character’s long history. And we’ll hear from the author of a book that dives into the history of one of the country’s most popular bourbons.
