Shara Worden & <em>On the Road</em>
The co-founder of the Belarus Free Theatre, Natalia Kaliada, tells Kurt about her run-in with the KGB of Belarus, and her new status as an exile. Shara Worden — part of a new generation of musicians who isn’t afraid to mix classical composition with indie rock sounds — performs live in our studio. And we’ll hear about a redesign of the nation’s interstate highway signs.
