The Great Chicago Quiz - Contestant Application

Calling all Chicago trivia nerds! WTTW is looking to cast YOU as a contestant on Geoffrey Baer’s series, THE GREAT CHICAGO QUIZ SHOW.

You don't have to be a Chicago know-it-all (though we welcome those too). The idea is just to have fun. So show us your lively personality and your hometown pride in a 30-second video! Post it to any video or file sharing platform (such as YouTube, Vimeo, Google Drive, Dropbox), and then paste the link in the application form below. In the video, you could tell us about your favorite piece of Chicago trivia, try to impress us with your history knowledge, or just explain why you’re a Cubs fan or Sox fan! It’s up to you… this is your chance to shine!

Who knows, you just might be the next superstar contestant on THE GREAT CHICAGO QUIZ SHOW. Coming March 2021 to WTTW.

P.S. Keep it simple; we’re not asking for Gone with the Wind, we just want to see your energy and enthusiasm for the city of Chicago.

P.P.S. And we are PBS, the home of SESAME STREET, so please keep it P.G.
