Grass Roots Jazz Series Thriving + Woodstock Folk Fest Back

Gary Zidek

On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek checks in on an outdoor jazz concert series born in the midst of the pandemic that has not only continued, but expanded long after the COVID restrictions went away. Theater critic Jonathan Abarbanel joins Gary to review a new production of A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC. Later in the show, Gary previews the 41st Woodstock Folk Festival. And he’ll catch up with the author of a book all about the history of one of Chicago’s oldest cultural landmarks.
