'Tonya & Nancy: The Rock Opera:' An Evening with Author Elizabeth Searle
The scandal associated w/ the 1994 U.S. Figure Skating Championship? N
Fresh from this summer’s sold-out performance at the New York Musical Festival, Elizabeth Searle, creator of Tonya & Nancy: The Rock Opera, will spend an evening discussing her novels and plays, and the national- even worldwide - media attention they have received. The rock opera is based on the infamous Tonya Harding/Nancy Kerrigan ice scandal that occurred after a practice during the 1994 U.S. Figure Skating Championship.
In conversation with David Whitford, editor-at-large of Inc magazine, we will hear why this event “haunted” Searle and how it led to the concept for this rock opera.
These evening feature active participation by the audience through question and comments. Pre-registration is encouraged; walk-ins are welcome as space permits. To register - http://register.asapconnected.com/courses.aspx?coursegroupid=6347
