Why Ira Glass Moved Into Modern Dance

“Glass has experimented with visual forms before: television, live shows, movies. Until he encountered Monica Bill Barnes & Company, dance was the exception. … But when he first saw Monica Bill Barnes, something clicked. There was confetti, goofiness, turtlenecks, pop music. ‘I really loved it,’ he said. … “It felt so much like the work I tried to do on the radio, and what was surprising about that is that you can’t get further from radio than dance.”
