Arts And Crap

This week's selection was chosen by you, the listeners, and your hectoring e-mails! The A&C crew takes a trip to CHI-RAQ, the 2015 Spike Lee collaboration with writers Kevin Wilmott and Aristophanes. It's a retelling of a piece of ancient Greek agit-prop theater, LYSISTRATA, about woman organizing to withhold . . . you know . . . ESS-EEE-ECKS . . . until their men stop a war, updated to modern day Chicago. It stars Nick Cannon (NICK CANNON PRESENTS: WILD'N OUT, NICK CANNON'S BIG SURPRISE), Teyonah Parris (DEAR WHITE PEOPLE, EMPIRE CORNER), and the guy from BLADE who played Blade, Wesley Snipes.
