Robert Smith and Tricia Stiller

On the Wednesday edition of "Live and Local," we'll feature a couple of upcoming events involving young people in our communities. My guests will be Robert Smith, a performing arts teacher at Booker T. Washington School in Champaign, where his students will perform Willy Wonka Kids on Friday; and Tricia Stiller, who co-directs the McLean County Diversity Project's Production of The Laramie Project in Bloomington.
