From the Studio: Spokane Civic Theatre Presents "Guys and Dolls"

Opening this Friday, Guys and Dolls is sure to be a theatrical treat, and we had members from Spokane Civic Theatre in the studio to tell us all about it.  Director Melody Deatherage and actors Andrew Ware Lewis (playing Sky Masterson), Tanya Barton (playing Miss Adelaide), and Patrick McHenry-Kroetch (playing Nathan Detroit) chatted with Verne.  

Guys and Dolls opens Friday, May 20th and runs through June 19th at Spokane Civic Theatre.

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.
