PBS has announced their lineup for this year's Arts Fall Festival, and theatre fans will be excited. Performances range from SHOW BOAT to ACT ONE, and feature performers such as Chita Rivera, Vanessa Williams, Norm Lewis, Kate Baldwin, and many more familiar Broadway names.

The latest in unauthorized gossip and buzz from the heart of Chicago's showtune video bars, and musical theater news from Chicago to Broadway. 'Anything Goes,' 'A Funny Thing...' and 'Billy Elliot' prepare to open, 'Les Mis' racks up the raves, season announcements from the Paramount, Kokandy, The Hypocrites and Chicago Shakes, plus another Austen adaptation, and legs for Ethel Merman. Enjoy the warmth!
