Center for Theatre and Dance</FONT>, will lead a tour of the new<FONT
color=#000000> '62 Center for Theatre and Dance</FONT> theater complex at
Williams College. We will start at 1pm. The theater designed
by William Rawn is a Merit winner of the USITT architecture
awards. Cosmo was involved full time in the design and construction of
the building so we will have unique insights on the process from one of our
own members.</DIV>

if it does)</DIV>
<DIV>1:00 PM</DIV>
<DIV>Informal background discussion on the theater, the program, Cosmo's
position in the planning and execution of the project and the roles of the
other players, the architect and the consultants. Bring your bag lunch,
We will supply the drinks.</DIV>
<DIV>1:45 PM</DIV>
<DIV>A Hands on tour of the project from grid to trap room and everywhere in
between. Questioning encouraged! (as if we had to say that with this
group) Come dressed to explore, not to look good.</DIV>
<DIV>3:45 PM</DIV>
<DIV>Wrap up and goodbye</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>It should also be prime leaf peeping season., so plan on converging
in Williamstown in on October 15 for an exploration of the new theaters and a
chance to get together and have a great time with friends &
colleagues.</DIV>
<DIV>The leaf peepers are likely to be out in force so give yourself extra
time to get to Williamstown.</DIV>
<DIV>Please let us know soon if you are planning to come (including friends
& students) just so we have an idea of how many drinks are needed and how
to structure the tour.</DIV>
