This morning representatives from the Lake City Playhouse in Coeur d'Alene stopped by the studio to talk about their upcoming production of Jesus Christ Superstar. Director Troy Nickerson, music director Henry McNulty and cast members Abbey Crawford and Jadd Davis shared their experiences with the show and gave us a preview of a couple of the songs. Jesus Christ Superstar opens Friday March 31 at Lake City Playhouseand runs Thursdays through Sundays until April 23.
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.
