Dear Ms. Mercer;
On behalf of two hundred and fifty children from Grades 3, 4 and 5, and their teachers and some parents, I want to thank the Traveling Lantern organization for the lovely presentation on "The Life of Mozart" which your two actors gave us on Wednesady, March 8th.
They performed for both our elementary school sites, and had equal success before both audiences. Our principal was very pleased. She thought is was very touching, as did I. The idea of the large ghost for the banquet scene of Don Giovanni was most effective, as was the beautifully spoken taped narration. Thank you for including many musical examples.
In the interaction with the students, the actors were very sincere and answered the children's' questions so nicely. They were not condescending, but rather genuinely interested in the children.
I believe our students will always remember Mozart's 250th birthday since they had the opportunity to see this special presentation!
Please give your two artists my warmest wishes and thanks.
Sincerely;
Sara McKay
