Three Acts, Two Dancers, One Radio Host - Words and Visuals!

"Three Acts, Two Dancers, One Radio Host:  Ira Glass, Monica Bill Barnes, Anna Bass", a show that combines two art forms that - as Glass puts it - "have no business being together - dance and radio", come to the Nourse Theater in San Francisco on November 16 and 17.  This American Life host Ira Glass has been working with Monica Bill Barnes & Company to invent a show that combines these two art forms - one is all words and no visuals, the other is all visuals and no words.  The result is a funny, lively and very talky evening of dance and 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."
