From the Email files of Harris Mann, Co-Artistic Director - The MET Theatre

I was fourteen years old when my Uncle Bukie brought me to The Pittsburgh Civic Theatre to see John Astin in "A Christmas Carol". It was a defining moment in my life. I fell in love with theatre. I read plays, directed friends at the local YMCA in plays we wrote and from there on continued forth on a journey through The Yale School of Drama to Los Angeles, where I reside today. My life is dedicated to bringing coherent stories to the stage and screen and Christian Meoli's play is right up my alley. From the moment I read the play I knew it had to be done and now was the time to do it. The only reason to perform a period piece is to tell a story that mirrors the times we are in and Christian Meoli's play does just that.

Your assistance in bringing The Dadaists to life is not just a financial contribution; it is a noble pro-active action towards the betterment of our culture.

Thank you,

Harris Mann

From the desk of Allison Gammon, Co-Artistic Director - The MET Theatre

Never in my life have I been more excited or more inspired by a piece of work as "The Dadaists." Upon my 1st read I was completely enthralled and knew it must be done. After a few months, we selected the piece to be a part of our "On The Verge" staged reading series. In my opinion, it turned out to be the best show of the series. It is passionate, historical and innovative and involves all forms of art as is true to Dada. The Dadaists is brilliantly written; all the characters are fully realized, fun and lively. This is a timely piece as it reflects our current situation in the world. A movement is a happening. We are moving forward and this play will happen. We will go up. We will DADA.

Please help us to fully experience all the possibilities that this play contains.

Sincerely,

Allison Gammon
