DDR! (A!M!)

Radio Arts, your trusted guide to all things arts, has made a foray into the world of contemporary dance. And things are getting pretty revolutionary there, if you'll excuse the video game reference. The Middlebury College Dance Program is presenting its Spring Concert, which this year is "Shifting the Frame." It's a selection of short pieces, choreographed by Midd students and faculty, and all incorporating some sort of film or video media. Each piece deals with the intruding media in certain ways - sometimes harmoniously, sometimes curiously, but always creatively. We spoke to some of the dancers, and to Tiffany Rhynard, visiting assistant professor in the Dance Program about the performance.

Also, "Jumpers" by Tom Stoppard is finally coming up for production, and we air an interview with its director, Cheryl Faraone, and her collaborator Steve Abbott. We discuss inter-departmental collaboration and some of Tom Stoppard's borrowings from Math and Science.
