Worldview is a show like none other on air, on WBEZ or beyond. Its investigation into the world, its politics, and its culture from its implicitly Chicagoan vantage point is of immeasurable value. No other show on WBEZ’s diminishing selection of locally produced options represents the arts (and theatre in particular) in Chicago the way Nari Safavi’s World Passport does, and the timing of this cancellation is made all the more tragic by being on the heels of the death of Milos Stehlik. Fans of this show – and we do exist – are already in mourning. Please don’t add insult to injury by cancelling this cultural touchstone.
