Today in the studio we had members from Spokane Civic Theatre visit to talk about their upcoming show Hapgood, which opens this Friday, March 18th at 7:30pm and runs through Sunday, April 10th. Executive Director Keith Dixon as well as show director Jamie Flanery and actor Dave Rideout (playing Kerner) talked with Verne about the premise of the show and performed a short excerpt.
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.
