4 weeks to NY conference; more plans announced; make your own plans now
Co-chairs Sherry Eaker and Ira Bilowit announce the “Perspectives on Criticism” panel will feature two directors and two playwrights. Already interested is Marsha Norman, with some other big names in our sights. (Hint: Read the lively remarks by a well-known playwright a couple of items down on our Criticism in Controversy page.)
The acting teachers’ panel now includes Olympia Dukakis and Joanna Merlin, joining Bill Esper (William Esper Studio), Sabra Jones (Actors Studio, co-founder of NY’s Mirror Repertory Co.) and Terry Schreiber (T. Schreiber Studio).
The Friday location will be the Baruch Performing Arts Center (Baruch College) on E. 25th St. between Lexington & 3rd Aves. The location for Sunday’s session on the digital critic is still to be announced; ditto the stars for the Saturday brunch at Sardi’s.
HOTEL: The marvelous discount at the midtown Milford Plaza Hotel is still available, but only by phone, not online. Call 888-352-3650 or 212-869-3600. “The reservation clerk couldn’t have been nicer,” says one Florida critic.
DISCOUNTS: Sherry knows of some winter theater discounts, too complex to list here; contact her at 212-254-5161 or sherry.eaker@gmail.com.
