The dominant feature after the two buildings are linked would be a conical tower with a masonry exterior. USI trustees heard an update of the architectural plans for the University Center on Thursday. .
At 30, Symphony Space Is in Fine Form
And when the curtain call came, they all returned to the stage. The staff's pride in the institution was evident at intermission, when a dozen employees walked up and down the aisles passing out glasses of Champagne to members of the audience more than 900 people. The co-founders of Symphony Space, Isaiah Sheffer and Allan Miller, then led a triumphant toast, acknowledging its executive director, Cynthia Elliott, and lifers on the staff, such as the education director, Madeline Cohen. The audience roared and clapped all evening. The "Selected Shorts," in which actors read short stories, were some of the best in the show. It's no wonder this series has become a nationally distributed public radio show. Roy Blount Jr. told of the wardrobe he once chose for hosting a "Selected Shorts" evening six different pairs of shorts.
