PLEASE DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL, USE THE CONTACT INFO BELOW. Dear Theatre Students, We are requesting the participation of up to 10 student actors in a study looking at the characteristics of maternal speech. You do NOT need to have real-world experience with children to participate. The study would require about 1 hour of your time, and would involve your reading two series of sentences, one as if you were addressing an adult and one as if you were addressing an infant. You would be compensated $50 for your participation in the study. Your decision to participate or not will have no consequences for your academic progress – the Theatre department will not be informed about your choice to participate or not. This research is approved by the Psychology-Sociology Research Ethics Board. For further information, or if you would like to participate, please contact Dr. Melanie Soderstrom at M_Soderstrom(a)umanitoba.ca. *****

DIRECT ANY QUESTIONS TO THE CONTACT BELOW. DO NOT REPLY TO THIS LIST. The Manitoba Museum is looking for volunteer actors to add color and character to our Cosmomania exhibit. All actors will receive plenty of exposure, publicity, some free passes to the Museum and to our Yuri's Night event. It's a great chance to practice your craft and have a lot of fun doing it! Cosmomania Actor Time required: minimum 1 x 3-hour shift per week from Feb 4th, 2011 through April 17th, 2011, plus additional rehearsal time in advance of first shift (probably 1 x 3 hour shift) Job Description: The actor will take on the role of a character in the Cosmomania exhibit which celebrates the past 50 years of space exploration. Each character is set in a particular time period of spaceflight history, and each has a particular perspective on the "space race" or event in question. The actor will interact in character with visitors, asking them prompting questions and giving them a feel for the historic time period and the significance of the event. Some costuming will be provided by the museum as appropriate. Actors will also be able to direct visitors to basic museum amenities like restrooms and food services, and be able to answer some basic questions about the exhibit (based on briefing provided by the Museum). Character profiles are attached. If you or someone you know is interested, please contact Scott Young at scyoung(a)manitobamuseum.ca or 988-0627. Please help us spread the word! Cheers, Holli Holli Moncrieff, APR Communications & Public Relations Manager The Manitoba Museum (204)988-0614
