[ba-filk-announce] Consonance news



We're looking forward to seeing all of you at Consonance!

March 5-7, 2004
Crowne Plaza Silicon Valley
777 Bellew Drive, Milpitas

A preliminary schedule of events is up on the web site! Go to 
http://www.consonance.org and click on "Events" or "Programming Grid".

Hotel Reservations

The hotel has graciously agreed to continue to accept reservations at the 
$79 convention rate, beyond the deadline. To get this rate, please call the 
hotel directly at 408-321-9500 during business hours and mention Consonance.

Toria Needs Women (or Men)

We are still looking for someone to play the part of Iola in the first 
performance ever of "Doctor Who and the Torians". Any gender and any voice 
range is OK. This is a small part; in fact, we could arrange for it to be a 
speaking-only, non-singing part if you prefer.

As you probably know, "Doctor Who and the Torians" is a short two-act filk 
musical by Sara Bruce, with music from Gilbert and Sullivan.You will find 
the complete script at 
http://www.renegadechickens.com/wacky/Torians/Torians.pdf.

You can read from a script in the performance, so all you have to do in 
advance is to read through the script and learn a few G&S melodies, some of 
which you may know already. We have MIDI files for the melodies. The 
rehearsal and the performance will be on Sunday. If you can help us out, 
please send me email promptly.

Thanks, and see you soon at Consonance!
