A weekly program focusing on the arts and entertainment

Another Inland theater season is about to open and Arts and Entertainment Editor Bob Sokolsky says things should look different this time.

A year ago, he explains, all eyes were on the renovated Riverside Fox while area community and regional theaters moved back to secondary positions. This year, Sokolsky suggests, more attention may go to the local companies, leaving the Fox to prove itself to Inland audiences.

That, he says, doesn't mean the Fox had a bad year. It just didn't have a very good one and now its officials will be trying to improve that situation.
