Dear Member,
Greetings! Summer in Chicago is a time to get out and about, and both WTTW and WFMT are out in
the community during these warmer months. We’re bringing PBS Kids walk-around character Nature
Cat outdoors to engage with kids around the city and suburbs, encouraging them to discover the
natural world in their own back yards; and we recently launched a new Chicago Loop app, which you
can download to join Geoffrey Baer and explore our great city and its architectural wonders like never
before. And on musical front, WFMT is proud to bring you live summer
concerts from the Ravinia and Grant Park festivals; this month, in a first
for the station, we will be bringing you a special Grant Park concert from
the South Shore Cultural Center with the Grant Park Orchestra led by
guest conductor Thomas Wilkins. Remember that you can take all of this
content with you on your phone. Go to iTunes to download the WTTW/
PBS Video app, the new WTTW Chicago’s Loop app, and the WFMT app
for Apple and Android.
This month on WTTW11 and wttw.com, weekend nights in July offer
a variety of exciting new content from Great Britain. On Fridays, join us
for a new season of the wildly popular The Great British Baking Show;
on Saturdays, enjoy a new series of Agatha Christie mysteries and more
installments of Luther with Idris Elba. Sundays, settle into mysteries with Dancing on the Edge, The
Tunnel, and a new season of Masterpiece Mystery! Inspector Lewis. Chicago Tonight provides exclusive
cross-platform reports from the Republican and Democratic National Conventions, at the special time
of 10:00 pm and online; we premiere a new season of Wild Travels, a quirky installment of Islands
Without Cars from Sweden, and a new world music special from the Old Town School of Folk Music.
WTTW’s digital series Chat, Please! serves up a new webisodes all summer long and, last but not least,
WTTW brings you the annual Independence Day celebration from Washington, D.C., A Capitol Fourth.
On 98.7WFMT and wfmt.com, July offers live broadcasts from the Grant Park Music Festival, with
guest artists including the National Youth Choir of Scotland, conductor Marin Alsop, and violinist Rachel
Barton Pine. Our Lyric Opera repeats conclude on Saturdays with Romeo and Juliet and Rusalka, and
we follow these with specials from the Los Angeles Opera. And to honor Independence Day, we’ll have
a mini-festival of American music from July 1-4.
We hope all of this, and much more, enhances your enjoyment of the summertime in Chicago.
Sincerely,
Dan Schmidt
President & CEO

MEMBER PERKS
2-for-1 Tickets to the World
Premiere of CHOPS
WTTW Members have the exclusive opportunity
to receive 2-for-1 tickets to the World Premiere of
CHOPS. Directed by Jeff Award Winner Richard
Shavzin and written by Chicago playwright Michael
Rychlewski, this quintessentially Chicago play tells
the story of three middle-aged jazz freaks who were
the Kings of Rush Street at its peak in the ’50s and
’60s. The only problem is that it’s 1984, and those
glory days are gone. In this potent cocktail of jazz,
frayed friendships, and testosterone, they still need
to prove they have the chops.
Previews July 7 and runs through August 14 at
Theater Wit at 1229 W. Belmont Street in Chicago.
This offer is valid on general admission tickets. Please
call (773) 975-8150 or visit theaterwit.org and use
code “WTTW’ when purchasing tickets.
$10 Off Tickets to Chicago
Dance Crash
Inspired by a growing demand for Chicago
Dance Crash’s street dance aesthetic, Evil &
Good utilizes Chicago Dance Crash’s (CDC)
signature blend of concert dance and hip-hop,
offering a boiled-down alternative to its summer
annual movement play: sheer, pulse-raising
dance. Throwing CDC’s movement capacity into
overdrive, CDC and special guest Culture Shock
Chicago choreograph this explosive full-length
conceptual piece featuring a hip-hop blend
inspired by the world’s constant struggle between its angels and demons.
Tickets available July 8-16; performances at
Vittum Theatre in Wicker Park, 1012 N. Noble in
Chicago. WTTW members save $10 on each $25
ticket. Use code WTTW to purchase tickets at

$5 Off Tickets to A Midsummer Night’s Dream
WTTW Members have the exclusive opportunity to receive $5 off tickets to First Folio Theatre’s
Shakespeare Under the Stars production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream
Pack a picnic and experience the Shakespearean classic that the Chicago Sun-Times says “speaks directly
to the trees and moonlight.” This is the perfect show for families to laugh at the antics of the mischievous
Puck as this fantastical
fairy turns the world
upside-down for the
quartet of lovers and
the crazed Bottom,
driving them to wild
antics in the forest, all
in the beautiful outdoor environment of
the historic Mayslake
Peabody Estate!
Playing at Mayslake
Peabody Estate, 1717
W. 31st Street in Oak Brook, this show runs July 9 through August 14. This offer is valid for any Wednesday
or Thursday performance. Please call (630) 986.8067 or visit firstfolio.org and use code “WTTW’ when
purchasing tickets.

Inspired by true events, this Pulitzer Prize-winning opera is sure to spark conversation as it tells of a refugee during the
Cold War and the challenges she faces in trying to create a better life for her family.

The Nine Months
That Made You
(Parts 2 and 3)
Research reveals that a time you can’t
remember – the nine months you
spend in the womb – could have more
lasting effects on you today than your
lifestyle or genes. It is one of the most
powerful and provocative new ideas in
human science, and it was pioneered
by a British scientist, Professor David
Barker. This three-part series examines
how your time in the womb could affect
your health, personality, and even the
lives of your children.

Johan Norberg
The Real Adam Smith:
A Personal Exploration
by Johan Norberg
This two-part film takes an intriguing
look at the “father of modern
economics” Adam Smith and the
evolution and relevance of his
revolutionary ideas today, both
economic and ethical. It’s difficult to
imagine that a man who lived with
horse-drawn carriages and sailing
ships could foresee our massive 21st
century global market exchange, but
Smith was no ordinary 18th century
figure. Norberg explores Smith’s
insights regarding free trade and the
nature of wealth to the present, where
they are thriving and driving the world’s
economy.

Inspector Lewis
(New Season)
Kevin Whately and Laurence Fox return
for all-new season of the beloved
Inspector Lewis series. As Lewis
struggles to adjust to life in retirement,
Hathaway has resolved his crisis of
crime-fighting faith during an extended

his promotion to Inspector. But the
presence of murder and mayhem in
the seemingly perfect academic haven
of Oxford remains unaltered, requiring
the intuitive experience of Lewis and
the cool intellect of Hathaway to tackle
three riveting new cases.

Andris Nelsons
From Carnegie Hall
From now through September we’ll
have some Friday-night performances
from the star-studded 2015-16 season
at New York’s Carnegie Hall. We begin
with the gala that opened the season,
featuring the New York Philharmonic
led by music director Alan Gilbert,
with Yevgeny Kissin performing
a Tchaikovsky favorite, the Piano
Concerto #1. The concert opens
with a Carnegie Hall commission,
Vivo by Magnus Lindberg, a former
Philharmonic composer-in-residence.
The second broadcast features
the Boston Symphony with its
new, critically-acclaimed music
director, Andris Nelsons, leading
Rachmaninoff’s Symphonic Dances.
To open the concert Nelsons chose
Prokofiev’s Alexander Nevsky, with
the Tanglewood Festival Chorus
and mezzo-soprano Nadezhda
Serdyuk, a soloist with Russia’s
Mariinsky Opera Company.

Christoph König
Grant Park Music
Festival Live: Bruckner
Since Anton Bruckner was a
composer during the Romantic era,
and very much a practitioner of the
lush late-Romantic style, it’s a little
odd that just one of his symphonies
is singled out with the nickname of
Romantic. This is his Symphony #4 in
E-Flat, probably the best-known and
best-liked of all his works, and the one
that marked his first major success.
It’s actually a nickname used by the
composer himself, who had originally
conceived an extra-musical program
for the work based on images and
tales from the Middle Ages: the first
movement is meant to evoke “dawn at
a medieval citadel…knights sally forth
from the gates on proud chargers.”
The second movement evokes a
lovers’ duet, and the third, the most
obviously descriptive, portrays a
medieval hunt in which horn calls
are especially prominent. Guest
conductor Christoph König returns to
Pritzker Pavilion to conduct this work,
opening the program with Haydn.

Chicago Symphony
Orchestra Radio
Broadcasts: Morlot
and Koh
A conductor who’s received increased
attention in recent seasons is Ludovic
Morlot, music director the past four
years of the Seattle Symphony, with
which he has made highly acclaimed
recordings of both symphonic classics
and new works. Morlot, who began
his musical studies on the violin, is
in demand internationally as a guest
conductor. On a 2015 visit to Chicago
he conducted Beethoven’s Symphony
#3, Eroica, a Berlioz overture, and The
Seamstress for violin and orchestra by
Anna Clyne, a former CSO composerin-residence. It was commissioned by
the CSO, which was joined by violinist
Jennifer Koh for the premiere. The
work is in one continuous movement
and is described by its composer as
an imaginary ballet, showing the tales
envisioned by a seamstress as she
works. It’s scored for the soloist, a
very large orchestra, and electronics.

Festival Live: From
the South Shore
Cultural Center
Music by Berlioz, Mendelssohn,
Saint-Saens, Lehar, and Michael
Daugherty will be led by guest
conductor Thomas Wilkins when
the Grant Park Orchestra visits
the South Shore Cultural Center.
This will be WFMT’s first live
broadcast from this venue, which
was built in 1905 as the South
Shore Country Club. In 1975 it was
sold to the Chicago Park District,
which preserved the main building
(built in the Mediterranean Revival
architectural style). The center
now houses a School of the Arts
that encompasses a theater, a
gallery, and an art studio. This is
in addition to the center’s beach,
restaurant, picnic areas, public golf
course, and nature center. Great
space for a summer concert!
