Just got an email that the RotK symphony at Wolftrap, VA will be Fri & Sat September 10-11, 2010 next fall.

The info is here.

Tickets go on sale a month from now.

Shall we plan a moot around it? What say you, hobbit posse?

I'd love it, but I know I couldn't do all the walking and climbing I'd have to do. My old body just can't handle it anymore.

Was the walk from the restaurant to your orchestra seat difficult? If not we should be able to limit your path to little more than that. I could call the park and find out how we could get some disabled access to drive up to the restaurant to let you out before parking--there is access. If I knew how hard those steps were for you at the end, we could have at least left the theater the way we came in to avoid those uphill steps--we didn't have to go that way at all, so you shouldn't have had to tackle that, nor that hill at the beginning--there is access at stage level. *hugs* There is wheelchair access, so there's definitely a way for people who don't walk to get there, as there should be. If you want to go, it wouldn't be a problem at all to arrange for this, as we have 11 months to work out all the details, so let me know and I'll do the inquiries--it'll be easy. Getting rid of that initial hill to climb and the steps we went up at the end is completely doable, so if you'd love to come, you should. I'd love you to come, too!

This is so sweet of you, to think of going to all that trouble for me. Let's wait a while, and see what happens. Maybe I'll get better, or the doctor will decide I need a bypass. I just couldn't bring myself to ask you all to do all that for me, no matter how willing you are to do it.

No, really, it's very easy! And you should speak up about what you need! If I were smarter about eldering, I would have figured it out--I'm going to be there, too, so it's never too soon to learn about how to deal with access.

The Wolftrap site has a page on accommodating disability, and I have the number to call, so it will take hardly any time at all. I never ate at the restaurant before so I didn't know the lay out of how it's situated next to the orchestra shell, but now that I do, I can see, even before calling them that getting you on level ground won't be a problem--it's just a matter of finding out in advance what route to take and what pass we may need. The only problem last time was that I didn't know you needed to avoid stairs and hills--now I do, so it can easily be taken care of. I want your company if you want to go.
