How very interesting what you are doing in Connecticut, I am in Boston and produce and host a performance series called "Art Is Life Itself!" at the Haley House Bakery Cafe EVERY Thursday night.. I would love to talk about collaborating with you or featuring you at some point in the future. MassMouth will present on Thursday December 11th starting @7pm-ish. Feel free to attend that Thursday or any Thursday that you are available. We have a Feature, a dialogue with the Feature and Open Mic. Please be in touch. Peace Nina!

At 12:30pm on September 25, 2008, andrea lovett said…: Hi, That's sounds wonderful ! You should add it as an event. Do you know how? There is a button at the top of the page that says events click on that and it will take you to the page. Then on the right side of the page there is a plus sign I think that says add your event. It does require you add a picture but I am sure you must have one on your desktop you can add. Follow the steps and boom bang you've done it. If you have trouble I will be glad to help you. But people should know about it your performance . AND wanted t tell you nice article in MUSE ! Andrea

A fall back plan helps. I noticed that you also do historical stuff - I enjoyed your website!
