...Right you are. Yours is being presented on Wednesday. Did you get my email?
And your name had not been visible on this list because I omitted a symbol so, well, it was invisible. Now it's not. Congrats.

If you haven't already, please contact vermont stage for two free tickets to Wednesday night's show.... Call with questions.
