Overture To Reschedule Panel Discussion Perspectives On MISS SAIGON

Overture Center for the Arts is postponing the dialogue, Perspectives on Miss Saigon: History and Community, originally scheduled for this evening. Dr. Ed Holmes, Overture's Sr. Vice President for Equity and Innovation coordinated the event for Overture.

He said, "We determined that we have a misunderstanding with the people that we were collaborating with for this dialogue. It appears that we were not all on the same page as to our goals, objectives and the purpose for tonight's event. This is uncharted territory for us. And although we were not able to proceed this evening, this is an important conversation for us to have, one that we will not shy away from. Our goal was to ensure that all voices were heard. As of this morning, we felt that we were too far apart on the purpose of the panel. We are working on rescheduling. An added benefit of discussing these issues at a later date is everyone will have the opportunity to see the show and be more informed about the content, which is the central focus of our anticipated discussion."

Overture Center will announce the new date as soon as it has been identified and secured.

Overture Center for the Arts in Madison, Wisconsin features seven state-of-the-art performance spaces and five galleries where national and international touring artists, ten resident companies, and hundreds of local artists engage nearly half a million people in educational and artistic experiences each year.
