Stage Door Encounters and other Celebrity Sitings

[Marlis Schweitzer]

Dear CanDrama members,

For an upcoming issue of /CTR /with a focus on Celebrity Culture, I'm 
looking to publish short (150-250 words max) personal anecdotes of your 
experiences meeting/ working with/ encountering "star" actors, 
actresses, performers, and/or celebrities...anything from star struck 
stage door greetings to random encounters at Tim Horton's. What 
happened? Where were you? How did you react? How did others around you 
respond? Did the encounter change your life in any way? What did it say 
to you about celebrity culture in Canada?

Or...if you yourself are an actor, performer, and/or celebrity and have 
had bizarre or interesting encounters with fans that you wish to share, 
please also consider sending something along...

Deadline for submissions: *July 1, 2009* to Marlis Schweitzer at 
*schweit at yorku.ca*. Photos welcome if you have them.

All the best,
Marlis
