After 35 years, the curtain closed on "Phantom of the Opera," Broadway's longest running show. New York Times theater writer Michael Paulson joins to talk about its legacy and impact on New York's creative community and we take listener calls.

Adi Oasis' new album, Lotus Glow, is her most political and personal body of work to date. The French-Caribbean, Brooklyn based artist joins us for a listening party ahead of her show at Brooklyn Made tomorrow night.

These days, being a bridesmaid or a groomsman can be more costly and time-consuming than ever, with elaborate parties and showers, expensive attire, and costly gifts. With wedding season coming up, the honor of being included in a bridal party can start to feel like a burden. But it doesn't have to be that way! Gabriella Rello Duffy, editorial director of Brides, joins us discuss how to be a good bridesmaid/groomsman without breaking the bank, and what couples can do to be considerate of their friends' time and money. Plus, we take your calls.

Jaune Quick-To-See Smith is an artist and citizen of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Nation, who for over five decades has made work that explores indigenous ideology within American culture through abstraction and Pop art. A new major retrospective at the Whitney, her first in New York, opens today, and curator Laura Phipps is with us to talk about the importance of Smith and her art. Jaune Quick-to-See Smith: Memory Map is on view until August 13.
