[clay dube]

This looks like a wonderful opportunity. I believe that music, dance, and theater students and teachers might benefit from it. Note that they may fill the program with university students. Their big aim is to increase international awareness and appreciation of Chinese opera. Teachers could certainly help with that. If you're interested, don't hesitate to apply.
