Changes in UNH's Athletic Programs / Richard Feynman Opera

By Shay Zeller on Thursday, February 2, 2006.

Tonight on the Front Porch, we examine the major cuts and reorganization announced by UNH's Athletic Department this week. We'll talk with Welch Suggs of the Knight Commission about what appears to be a trend across the nation.

We'll also look at the intersection of art and quantum theory. Physicist Richard Feynman captured the imagination of many Americans in the 1950s and '60s with his charisma and groundbreaking ideas. Now a new opera celebrates the Nobel Prize winner's life. The avant-garde production features one actor and four drummers. We'll meet the work's composer, Jack Vees. Jack is the Operations Director of the Yale Center for Studies in Music Technology.

FEYNMAN SHOW DATES:
-Saturday, February 4th, 8:00 PM -- Annicchiarico Theater 1 Thompson Street, Concord, NH

-Sunday, February 5th, 4:00 PM-- Dartmouth College Faulkner Auditorium in the Hopkins Center for the Arts, 6041 Lower Level Wilson Hall, Hanover, NH
