Don Hall - An Angry White Guy in Chicago

About Me

I am the Events Coordinator for Chicago Public Radio and the Audience Services cat for NPR’s prolific game show Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me!

I am also a producer, director, and writer of Chicago Off-Loop Theater. I am the Founding Director of Chicago's prolific WNEP Theater . Every now and again, I can be seen performing on a Chicago stage or teaching advanced improvisational technique at the Work(shop)-in-Progress.

I am also an angry liberal and a dissatisfied artist.

Visit my blog - An Angry White Guy in Chicago - for daily updates about my skewed view of Chicago theater, the fetid world of politics and the planet in general. It isn’t pretty, so enter at your own risk.
