[O29] Fwd: Palestinian Dance troupe perform@ your rally?

[Nate Peyman]

Hi,
  Sounds good to me.  I'd love to include you in the schedule.  You will be on
the list.  The program is still forming, so we will let you know when things
get finalized.  Thanks for connecting to the Peace Rally.  I think it would be
both entertaining and a profound cultural experience.  Please be in touch.

  About your other question, what sized venue are you ocnsidering?  What sized
stage do you need?  For instance, could you fill a 300-person capacity space
for the 30th?  Or would it be more feasible to perform in a small space?  I
know some venues that you could consider.  Let me know what you're looking for.
 Thanks.
