On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek catches up with celebrated opera singer Sondra Radvanovsky to talk about returning home to the Chicago-area and a series of concerts at Lyric Opera. The Dueling Critics, Kelly Kleiman and Jonathan Abarbanel, join Gary to review the Chicago premiere of a Hamlet-inspired play titled FAT HAM. Later in the show, Gary visits the North Shore-based Marriott Theater as it begins to celebrate it’s 50th anniversary season. And we’ll check out the Chicago Botanic Garden as it opens the 11th edition of its annual Orchid Show.
