[Iabs-talk] Live Radio Drama in 2012

[Patti Gregory-Chang]

Good afternoon.

I wanted to let you know that we will be hosting the AFTRA/SAG Senior Radio 
Players (http://seniorradioplayers.com/) again in 2012. These are live 
performances of radio dramas from the 1930s & 1940s done by professional 
actors who are members of the American Federation for Television and Radio 
Artists and the Screen Actors Guild accompanied by professional Foley 
artists (sound effects makers).

I am reaching out to the National Federation of the Blind of Illinois 
because, in the past, we have hosted groups of individuals who are blind or 
visually-impaired and they have highly enjoyed these performances which are 
meant to be heard more than seen.

All performances are free and open to the public. The schedule for the 
spring season performances of 2012 is as follows:
2/22 - My Man Godfrey
5/1 - Dodsworth
7/31 - Easy Aces' "Jane Thinks Mink" and The Fabulous Dr. Tweedy's "The Bum" 
episodes
All performances are located in the Claudia Cassidy Theater on the second 
floor of the Chicago Cultural Center (78 E. Washington St.) in downtown 
Chicago. Doors open at 6pm for seating and the shows begin at 7pm. 
Additional information is available here:

We hope you will share this information with any people with blindness or 
visual impairment whom you serve at the National Federation of the Blind of 
Illinois.

If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact me.

Thank you,
Krista Damico
