On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek has some features on how the Chicago-area arts community is responding to the COVID-19 situation. Gary has the story of a Chicago theater company that’s using technology to reach audiences even when people are staying at home.  Gary also has a feature about a group of Chicago creatives who have come together to raise money for their fellow artists in this moment of crisis.  The Dueling Critics, Kerry Reid and Jonathan Abarbanel, stop by to talk about some of the women who helped shape Chicago theater over the years. Gary looks at some of the ways movies studios are releasing their new films. And a conversation with author J. Ryan Stradal about his book, THE LAGER QUEEN OF MINNESOTA.
