"What do festivals do?"
Whether it's a film festival or Edinburgh or the Venice Biennale or New Haven, we wonder what happens when you get a lot of creative stuff in one place.
Is there synergy? Do you get a sense of where the arts are heading? Is there an aggregate effect or just a lot of smaller discrete events?
This hour, we broadcast live from The Study at Yale.
GUESTS:
- Christopher Arnott - Writes about theater for the Hartford Courant
- Lucy Gellman - A reporter for the New Haven Independent and host of WNHH radio's Kitchen Sync
- Chad Herzog - Director of programming for the International Festival of Arts and Ideas (and Pancakes and Pumpkins)
