Hi everyone,
   In case some of you were unable to open the poster I attached last  
week regarding Richard Maxwell and the New York City Players, I've  
copied the information from the poster into the body of this email.   
Please join us in Toronto on the 19th - or in St. Catharines on the  
18th - for the events. The workshop is open, free, and volunteers only  
will be solicited for the exercises.

Cheers,
   Natalie


Richard Maxwell and the New York City Players

Hailed by the New York Times as "one of the most innovative and  
essential theatre artists to emerge from American experimental theatre  
in the past decade," Obie-award-winning New York City playwright and  
director Richard Maxwell and members of the New York City Players will  
be visiting Toronto and the Brock University campus for the first time  
April 18th and 19th, 2009.

Students, faculty, and members of the theatre community will have an  
opportunity to engage in a discussion with Richard Maxwell and members  
of the New York City Players in an informal workshop that will include  
a mini-retrospective of their productions to date and exercises  
demonstrating principles that are central to their work.  The evening  
will conclude with a site-specific show entitled "Showcase" that takes  
place in a hotel room.  Showcase plumbs the thoughts of a businessman  
absorbed in the world of his private, hotel room as he and his shadow  
examine his past.
