[Usittne] backstage tour opportunity for rigging

[Jeff Gardiner]

Hi Crystal,

Would love to see back stage in the space.  I have been to a NETC 
Convention and one production at UConn/Storrs and would love to see 
what Jack did with the show.

Unfortunately, I have to be in Worcester that day and can't make it.

Best,
Jeff


>Hi all,
>Jack Nardi, Technical Director at the University of Connecticut, has

>U-Conn is producing "A Christmas Carol" with puppets, live music and

>Jack has offered to provide a backstage tour following the show on 
>Saturday, the 22nd, which is a 2 PM matinee. (Ending time around 4 
>or 4:30 depending on running time.)
>This is a great learning opportunity for those interested in rigging 
>to come and learn about the problem solving process of this 
>difficult show.  All are welcome and students are particularly 
>encouraged to attend.

>Please RSVP me right away if you are interested in this opportunity. 
>(<mailto:tiala at mindspring.com>tiala at mindspring.com)  I will try to 
>get a head count.  Let me know also if you are interested in seeing 
>the show first before the tour and how many will attend.  I will try 
>to arrange a deal on ticket prices but will need an accurate head 
>count.  Tickets are selling very fast so it is important that we get 
>an idea of attendees by this Wednesday, November 12th.  It is not 
>necessary that you see the show so also let me know if you want the 
>tour without seeing the show first.

>Hope to hear from many of you.
