For actual texts perhaps it would be good. I quote the guy saying "it's about celebrating texts as more as the study design,"

Might not, based on chelseaFC's comments, I'll just go for the video they'll put online afterwards. It'll have all the talking and info, and I can watch it on public transport to and from school. Saves me a bit of time.

Post by: SenriAkane on March 23, 2012, 11:25:33 pm: I went to the Cosi one last year, the guest was the person who acted as Roy in the first production . The talk itself was more about background of Cosi but the questions raised by the audience was rather helpful.
