Hal Real is a seasoned entrepreneur with a passion for new ideas and a history of transforming those ideas into successful businesses. He formed Real Entertainment Group, Inc. in order to "radically change the landscape for contemporary music audiences and artists." In October 2004, Hal delivered the first installment of that promise by opening World Cafe Live (WCL), a trailblazing live music venue, restaurant and events complex located at 3025 Walnut Street in Philadelphia. WCL shares the historic Hajoca building with revered public radio station WXPN, whose nationally syndicated "World Cafe" radio show inspired the venue's name and musical philosophy — bringing new music to people and new people to music.
