Actress and musician Amy Hough
TESOL Conference
The Rome TESOL Conference was an opportunity to meet people and discuss projects. I made contact with Inspector Raffaele Sanzo of the Italian Ministry of Education. He specializes in English tuition in Primary Schools and invited me to Rome on 6th October to present the FunSongs License material. I also renewed talks with Arrigo Speziali ands Raffaele Nasti of ACLE Teatrino but we weren't able to reach a satisfactory agreement about distributing or licensing FunSongs Shows. Lingue Senza Frontiere, another theatre group expressed interest in using some of our songs in their own shows.
I met many teachers, publishers and people in education I already knew and got the impression FunSongs is now an established name in the field. My session was well attended and people appreciated the new action song about dinosaurs "Sixty-Five Million Years Ago".
Amy Hough
Amy Hough from Los Angeles will be presenting FunSongs Shows with Scott Bishop this school year. She should be arriving in Bologna mid October. The first scheduled FunSongs shows are on Friday 21st October in Ceretolo near Bologna.
FunSongs Summer Camp
I received an email from Rossella Gualandi with details of the people to contact in Monte San Pietro. The meeting with Elena Iacucci of Casalecchio was rescheduled for Saturday 15th October and by then I hope to have a definitive answer from Zola Predosa.
Shows and material
Requests and queries about shows and material have been steady all week. Only definite bookings appear on the FunSongs Show website calendar page.
