The Physical Theater Festival turns 11

Chicago Reader: Alice da Cunha remembers the day she and her husband, Marc Frost, first came up with the idea of the Physical Theater Festival Chicago in the spring of 2013. “I was three months pregnant with our first child,” she says. She and Frost were just out for a walk in West Loop and had stopped in a coffee shop when Frost got a text on his phone from Links Hall, informing him that they were taking applications for a curatorial residency. “And he’s like, ‘Let’s apply,ʼ” says da Cunha.
