One Radio Host, Two Dancers at The Granada Theatre

Ira Glass with dancers? You read it right. The irrepressible host of This American Life has taken to the road with choreographer Monica Bill Barnes & Company for a marvelously quirky show combining two art forms that, as Glass puts it, “have no business being together – dance and radio.” The result is a hilarious, lively and very talky evening of dance and captivating stories that brought down the house in its first test run at Carnegie Hall. “What makes it work,” says Glass, “is a shared sensibility. As dancers, Monica and Anna are these amazingly relatable and funny storytellers without words.”
