[Jayhawk-Chapter] Fwd: Audio Description at the Lied Center of Kansas

[Tamara Kearney]

Hi Jayhawk NFB,

I am forwarding this in case any of you might be interested. I thought it might be fun if we could get a group together to go to some of these shows. Take a look and see what you think. I know that Lori would appreciate your input.

Rob, do you think we could discuss this at our meeting?

Lynda, would you bring this to the attention of your Lutheran group? 

I know that tickets for Lied Center events are somewhat pricy, but I’m mulling over some ideas to make it more affordable. 

Cheers,

Tamara Kearney

> Lori Kesinger is reaching out to ascertain interest in audio described programming, and I was hoping the three of you might be able to help brainstorm and spread the word. I have reached out to the three of you and copied Lori to facilitate communication, as I don’t know how many people who are b/lv here in MO would be able to attend productions in Kansas. I am certain any ideas you might have would be appreciated. ]

> Hi Shelia,
> The Lied Center is asking which shows of the upcoming season Audio-Reader would be willing to describe.  I am sure our describers are game for almost anything but we want to make sure there are patrons before we book the description.  Would you be willing to ask your group if anyone is interested in shows at Lied Center and if so which ones? Their Broadway series is Rent, Jersey Boys, The Color Purple and Beautiful. Family series is The Very Hungry Caterpillar show; Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer – Musical;  and the Peking Acrobats. 
> Full schedule is here:

> Any insight/help you can give to promote and grow Audio-Description is appreciated.
