From the Studio: Spokane Civic Theatre Presents "Little Women"

We had quite the crew in the studio this morning from Spokane Civic Theatre.  Several cast members of the upcoming production Little Women, in addition to director Kathie Doyle-Lipe and pianist Henry McNulty, came by to discuss the show and give us a preview of the music to come.  Members that sang today included David McCarthy, Kelsi Blaser, Julia Keefe, Andrea Tate, Jonah Taylor, and Shawn Michel Hunt.  Little Women, based on the classic novel by Louisa May Alcott, opens this Friday, February 26th and runs through Sunday, March 20th.

Verne Windham got his start at Spokane Public Radio 20 years ago. “I came in to complain and they hired me.” He’s now the Program Director, as well as the host of Morning Classical and Concert of the Week. When choosing music for Morning Classical, Verne likes to keep the agenda as broadly defined as possible. For Concert of the Week, he focuses on the best of recent local performances, mostly classical in nature. For many years, Verne was also the conductor of the Spokane Youth Orchestra. He enjoys gardening, his vintage car and playing French horn.
