From the Studio: Modern Theater CdA Presents "Dogfight"

Members of Modern Theater's "Dogfight"

The second of our theater previews today included members of The Modern Theater - Coeur d'Alene's upcoming production Dogfight. This summer encore show features Shelby Horton as the title character of Rose.  Shelby came into the studio to talk with Verne, as did Director Abbey Crawford, singer Alyssa Day, and pianist Zach Baker. Dogfight opens Friday, July 29th and runs through August 14th.

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.
