Save the date! Audio Book Performance Announced - Location TBD As many of you know, I'm creating an audio book of Alysa of the Fields. Progress is good and on schedule. As part of the Artist Crossroads grant requirements, I must hold a performance in 2009. Actors who played characters in the audio book will perform before a live audience at Sparkle on Saturday, December 5, 6:00-8:00 p.m. in Corning, NY (location TBD). The fun part is that the public will be invited to step up to the mics and participate in the "living book" by reading from the script. Then I'll play clips from the finished product. Further information about the audio book is at http://www.alysabooks.com/auditions.htm. |
