Philip Corboy, respected personal injury lawyer, passed away earlier this week. Bernard Judge, the former editor of the Chicago Daily Law Bulletin, remembers him on Eight Forty-Eight.

Then, Onstage/Backstage bloggers Jonathan Abarbanel and Kelly Kleiman “duel” over the revenge comedy Exit, Pursued by a Bear. Call 312.923.9239 to join them and Wall Street Journal critic Terry Teachout for a conversation about whether professional criticism still matters.

And finally, The Harlem Quartet, a multi-cultural ensemble from New York City in town for a performance with the Chicago Sinfonietta, stops by Navy Pier to perform and to talk about kids and classical music.
