<font style="font-size: 11pt" size="2">From 11am on 11/11/11 New
Zealand time until 11pm on 11/11/11 European time, an exciting
selection of cyberformance will be presented at the 11:11:11
UpStage Festival. Anyone with a standard internet connection and
browser can attend with just one click.</font> <br>
<br>
The schedule of performances to be presented at the 11:11:11 UpStage
Festival is now available online: <a
href="http://upstage.org.nz/blog/?page_id=2828">view the schedule
here</a>.<br>
<br>
It's always a big job to work out a schedule across so many time
zones, and this is the first year that we've managed to publish it a
month before the festival. We hope that this will make it easier for
you to plan ahead which shows you'd like to see, and help to get
more media coverage of this innovative festival of live online
performance.<br>
<br>
We've also released a <a
href="http://upstage.org.nz/blog/?page_id=2707">publicity pack</a>
which contains further information about the shows, as well the
real-life access nodes confirmed so far (more are always welcome,
just let us know) and background information to UpStage. You can
download this and access other media information about the festival
<a href="http://upstage.org.nz/blog/?page_id=2707">here</a>,
including links to some of the artists' sites where they are
documenting the process of developing their shows, and showreels
from past festivals.<br>
<br>
Please help spread the word - forward this email to anyone who may
be interested in attending the festival and especially to anyone you
know who may wish to cover the festival in any media.<br>
<br>
