WBEZ's Sound Opinions Talk Show Comes To Chicago's Goodman Theater Tonight

WBEZ's "Sound Opinions" - Tonight at the Goodman! Music, Politics and Revolution, 6PM tonight, at the Goodman Theatre (170 N Dearborn St.)

Join two of the most respected music critics and best-recognized pop music writers in the country-Jim DeRogatis of Chicago Sun-Times and Greg Kot of Chicago Tribune-as they explore the revolutionary power of rock and roll during their WBEZ show, "Sound Opinions," in a one-night only special event at Goodman Theatre, in conjunction with the main stage production of Rock 'n' Roll by Tom Stoppard.

The Chicago-based "Sound Opinions," the world's only rock and roll talk show, fires up smart and spirited discussions about a wide range of popular music, from cutting-edge underground rock and hip-hop, to classic rock, R&B, electronica, worldbeat, or just about any other genre, every week. During tonight's taping of "Sound Opinions," hosts Kot and DeRogatis will lead a discussion entitled "Music, Politics and Revolution" - inspired by the 21 rock 'n' roll songs that Stoppard hand-picked for his play.

This event is part of the Goodman's ongoing CONTEXT Series, special discussions which use themes from main stage productions to more deeply explore issues raised in the plays, and how they resonate in today's culture.
