I just heard that Bernice Johnson Reagon (see my earlier piece on her talk Tuesday) will be visiting our humble KUMM radio show (“Unhindered by Talent“) this Sunday from 2-4pm as part of her time here as our first Distinguished Visiting Professor.
Wow, I’m so totally nervous and intimidated. But it’ll be really cool.
What should we play? What should we talk about? I’ve got to talk to WeatherGirl and Sub-Evil Boy about this ASAP!
If you’re within 30 feet of campus you can listen on-air at 89.7FM. For those of you out in the distant lands you can listen on-line at kumm.org. Feel free to send us questions via e-mail (“request” at kumm.org) or IM (“kummdj” on AIM) during the show and we’ll pass them along. Thanks!

Then last night was the opening of Peter Pan, with our Sub-Evil as John Darling (Wendy’s brother). This was a great show, and the enormous amount of work that they’ve put in over the last two months really shows. The kids were confident and fun, and it was a wonderful evening. Jeremy Hance deserves big props for his excellent script, and David Johnson did a remarkable job as director, pulling together that huge production and cast and complex sets and costuming, and really making it happen in the end. The many elementary school kids (Peter, Wendy and John and Michael Darling, the Lost Boys) really held their own with the (very talented) high school students (the Darling parents and Nana, Hook and the Pirates, the Indians). The photo is Otto (left, as a Lost Boy) and Sub-Evil mugging it up.
