Episode 12: Arthur Pita

I adore Arthur. In this episode, he and I talk about his current project, an expansion of the Beach Boys’ “Good Vibrations”, his work with ballet’s biggest stars, and the challenges of creating during times of social change. I appreciate his candor as we discuss difficult and necessary topics. Arthur is a fascinating creator and I can’t wait for you to hear his interview in this episode of Front Row.
