Martin Short performs with the Iris Orchestra MEMPHIS, TN (WKNO) - Kacky Walton speaks with Martin Short about his upcoming performance in the Iris Orchestra's twelfth season inaugural concert, coming up Saturday, October 1st, at GPAC.

Comic genius Martin Short brings his unbridled energy and improvisational talent to Prokofiev's masterful musical parable, "Peter and the Wolf," and to the chansonnier role in H. K. Gruber's ingeniously surreal reworking of Frankenstein as a "pan-demonium" scored for orchestra and a cabinet of toy instruments.
