Dear Friends, Colleagues and Family-
We are inviting you to be part of this very special final two events with SKRIP Orkestra in New York.
Last week’s performances at John Jay College’s Gerald W. Lynch Theater went exceptionally well and was attended by several reviewers including playwright, Karen Malpede who will write about this project for The Drama Review.
Now I need your help to make the last two events successful. Please come out and join us and please help spread the word by forwarding this mailer to at least five friends (one for each former-Yugoslav nation).
