Aired on Friday, April 7th.

Dating back to the 1930s, this well-known annual festival offers international dance in many styles and traditions; such noted companies as Dance Theatre of Harlem, the Parsons Dance Company, and Trey McIntyre Project all made their debuts at "the Pillow."

Our guest is Marcello Angelini, the longtime artistic director at Tulsa Ballet. Recently, it was announced that Tulsa Ballet will perform at the world-famous Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival (located in the Berkshires, in Western Massachusetts). The company will stage a series of end-of-the-festival performances there in late August of this year. America's longest-running international dance festival, Jacob's Pillow will host Tulsa Ballet alongside the likes of Dutch National Ballet, Complexions Contemporary Ballet, and Martha Graham Dance Company. Angelini tells us how his company's appearance at this prestigious venue came to be.
