From the Studio: Ignite! Presents "On Shaky Ground"

In the midst of our symphony week, we took a break and paid homage to our Theater Wednesday tradition with the folks from Ignite! Community Theatre.  They are about to open their show On Shaky Ground by Molly Allen.  Verne had a chance to talk with Molly as well as Billy Hultquist and Jack Bannon about this show that is directed by Troy Nickerson.  On Shaky Ground is presented as two one-act segments and will open this Friday, September 16 and run through Sunday, October 2.

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.
