On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek catches up with author Doug Preston to talk about the unique literary project he helped put together. Preston and Margaret Atwood recruited over 30 of the world’s most popular fiction writers to work on a collaborative novel called FOURTEEN STORIES. The Dueling Critics, Kerry Reid and Jonathan Abarbanel, join Gary to review Gift Theatre’s latest and discuss the recently announced non-equity Jeff Award nominations. Later in the show, Gary takes a closer look at Chicago Shakespeare Theatre’s new Sufjan Stevens-inspired production, ILLINOISE. And we’ll highlight some local Lunar New Year activities.
