About Catalyst Radio

Catalyst Radio is the weekly public affairs radio program of Community Media Center, with co-hosts Michele Fife, Katie Gordon, Jessica Gladden and Jessica Young. The program is a feature of WYCE and The Rapidian and includes interviews with organizations and people working on social change and community support, examines media and free speech issues, and takes a look at the behind-the-scenes of Rapidian reporting. You can catch it on air at noon every Friday on WYCE 88.1 FM or streaming on the Grand Rapids Community Media Center Website.

Kyle Los, executive director of Actors' Theatre, shares the mission and vision of the theatre company - to bring West Michigan "entertaining, innovative, challenging and thought-provoking theatre." Kyle discusses the way they use theatre to prompt thoughtful dialogue through "talk-back" sessions, and his hope that pieces ultimately help promote social change in our community. 

The first play of the 2016-2017 year is Mr. Burns: A Post-Electric Play, with performance dates from September 29 through October 8, 2016.

Actors' Theatre performs at Spectrum Theater (160 Fountain NE). The box office is located inside Spectrum Theater and can be reached at 616-234-3946.
