The Department (radio show)
Synopsis: The 26 Floors of Zavier’s Department Store are lettered to represent each department, A for Apparel, Floor-Z being the office of Mister Zavier (pronounced more like Savior) who’s father built up the store from a carpet store to 26th Floor, one floor hiding a secret from his past. Chancy, the greeter on the street and most knowledgeable and friendly person in all of Chicago, gets too curious and finds the body of the local vacuum shop attracting two detectives. Chancy knows all the gossip and is sure he knows Bernard’s secrets as well as Mister Zavier’s.

Those stories, lost in years of imagination can be found at the Helen Borgers 2025 New Works Festival. The time is right to see your show, your lost dreams, on our stage!
