The Improper’s current issue profiles four local athletes—Emily Cook, Meghan Duggan, Steve Langton and Simon Shnapir—in the Winter Olympics. Here’s a schedule (with times in Boston) of each of their performances, as well as where you can watch these Bay Staters. The Improper will have quick recaps of the athletes’ work each day they compete, as well as some outtakes from their interviews leading up to the Games. In addition, we’ll have some photos from John Huet, who shot the photos for the magazine feature and who will be in Sochi to photograph the Games.
