Personally I don't mind making a day out of it \u2032I'm pretty sure Donna feels the same\u2032. I don't think we need to worry about the order of things as long as we experience everything. I think say that exploring the model of the stage should give an idea of where everyone is and how the performance comes off. Let's try exploring the model, and if there's feedback that actually going on the stage makes a huge difference then we can look at that \u2032I don't know yet what's essential and what's just nice to experience\u2032. Donna maybe you have a clearer picture of what else should be included? We've got plenty of time to prepare. :\u2032<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=xxxmsonormal>About the audio description... I wonder if you have a little microphone and headphones, or some other way that we can hear the voice during the performance. I know my Mom would love to experience this, and she's open to describing things, however I wonder if we can work out the audio. I think it would be nice if, in the event the Dso doesn't have anyone available, you guys can have a way for someone in the group to describe things. This isn't ideal as we don't want people to think they have to bring a describer with them, but it's a workable solution. I can maybe talk to some people and start thinking about a system that will work for you, and maybe even add to it when we get the audio description on your side. Just food for thought at this point; I'm sure there's a simple solution.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=xxxmsonormal>Thanks again Kirsten for your work on all of this.
