Dracula – Dance St. Louis, Wolf Howl, Votes needed!, New French Publisher, Anthology, DragonCon Photos


We are going to ask you to do something new this time. You can vote at the forum – forum.laurellkhamilton.org, by email to accounts@laurellkhamilton.org and via the messaging system at MySpace.

So what are we asking about?

Dance St. Louis is opening with Dracula. See below for more info. They have asked Laurell to do a 45 minute talk beforehand and a meet and greet afterwards. What we need are dates that work for everyone who would be willing to come.

So here are your choices:
Thursday October 23 Talk begins at 5:15, Ballet at 6PM to be followed by the meet and greet.

Friday October 24 Talk begins at 5:15, Ballet at 6PM to be followed by the meet and greet.

Saturday October 25 Talk begins at 1:15, Ballet at 2PM to be followed by the meet and greet.

Sunday October 26 Talk begins at 1:15, Ballet at 2PM to be followed by the meet and greet.

On the meet and greet. It would be limited admission not everyone attending will get to go. So you need to vote on that too.

Snacks and mingling? Or a signing with Laurell?

So you have two things to choose here. Which date and how to do the after party show.

The next thing I need to know from everyone is a Wolf Howl. We are looking at Wednesday October 29 or Thursday October 30. It will still be limited to 100 people. Which day if you could choose would you prefer?

Poll on forum can be found in the Questions For Fans section.


WOLF HOWL
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please do not call the Sanctuary yet! We haven’t set a date. See above for info.

Once we set a date, we will also set a date for the start of ticket sales and I will give everyone enough notice to get theirs.


DRACULA
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dance St. Louis, and this October 23-26 we are opening our 43rd season of bringing great dance of the world to St. Louis with BalletMet Columbus in their full-length "Dracula." Choreographed in 1999 by the company's former artistic director, David Nixon, this treatment of the story is not camp but serious--frightening, ambiguous, and erotic. One reviewer said "the dances are made of horror, romance and sex". The unsettling musical score is mostly by Alfred Schnittke, a 20th-century classical composer that the Post-Dispatch's Sarah Bryan Miller described as sounding "like Bach on acid."


NEW FRENCH PUBLISHER
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bragelonne is going to publish the AB series in France!
