The Arts Section 12/15/19

On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek talks to Denise McGowan Tracy, the creator of a new holiday musical that aims to fill a niche in Chicago’s theatre landscape.  A little later, Gary takes you inside a Chicago establishment that’s become the unofficial home to one of the city’s favorite holiday cocktails.  The Dueling Critics, Kerry Reid and Jonathan Abarbanel, stop by to review Steppenwolf Theatre’s world premiere musical LINDIWE. And Gary revisits his conversation with the director of a compelling HBO documentary about the true value of art. Also, an interview with the author of a new biography on Dr. Seuss.
