Spokane Public Radio

Amid their interview this morning, four actors—Julie Berghammer, Jacob Carruthers, Moira Moore and Jerry Uppinghouse—played out two short scenes for us under the direction of Troy Heppner, giving us a tantalizing taste of their spooky new show: “Two Witches, No Waiting.” Set in a small Texas town, it spotlights sisters (and supposed witches) Arlene and Elzbeth Marcus and the quirky characters that surround them as they stew in a heady brew of twists and turns, where barn owls spy on people through windows, closets fly open and even their house itself seems alive.

Performances will be at 7:30 PM Friday & Saturday and 2 PM Sunday beginning on November 9, with more at the same times each week through November 25.

This production is suitable for general audiences.

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.
