Hubbard Street Dance Chicago

This week on Inside the Arts, the New Orleans Ballet Association journeys back in time with Hubbard Street Dance Chicago in a special 40th Anniversary program. We catch up with artistic director Glenn Edgerton.

Then, Taco Truck Theater, a radical dinner playhouse on wheels, is kicking off a national tour with a stop at the New Orleans Museum of Art. The street theater project takes on issues affecting Latino communities. We talk with award winning performance artist José Torres-Tama.

And, the acclaimed Talea Ensemble brings an innovative musical experience to the Crescent City performing works by UNO and Tulane students and faculty.

Airs Tuesdays at 1:00 p.m., Wednesdays at 8:30 p.m., and Thursdays at 8:45 a.m.
