RAT Playwright FYI pt 2.



Playwrights and assorted others:

  I'm sorry to bother you all yet again-  It seems that Mr .Brian 
Kapell's email has crashed , and that anyone who  in fact did reply 
to him has been lost in the wilds of cyberspace.   If you did respond 
to the original email , which is reprinted below-  please respond 
again At briankazoo@aol.com.

A copy of the explanation is printed below, as well. I am deeply 
sorry for the inconvenience.


--Sincerely,

Brad Rothbart
Curator of Underground Voices
Theatre Double
