The robot asked the doctor if the da Vinci® robot was single. It turns out Dr. Joanne Levin, an infectious disease specialist, and Xenex™, a germ-zapping robot, have a lot in common. They both work at Cooley Dickinson, helping the hospital raise industry standards for cleanliness and patient safety. In fact, it is one of the first hospitals in the nation, and the first in New England, to use Xenex technology. This is just one of the reasons Cooley Dickinson has been ranked in the top 5 percent of hospitals in the U.S. for patient safety. And why it has been the recipient of the HealthGrades® Patient Safety Excellence Award™ for four consecutive years, 2009-2012.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: Kevin Kopjak | Prismatic Communications | [email protected] “Sets the benchmark of modern circus” —The London Evening Standard “A whole new kind of awe-inspiring theatre” —NBC SAN FRANCISCO’S HISTORIC CLUB FUGAZI TO REOPEN FALL 2021 THE 7 FINGERS, THE WORLD-RENOWNED CIRCUS AND ARTS COLLECTIVE, TO CREATE AN ONLY-IN-SAN-FRANCISCO INTIMATE AND IMMERSIVE THEATRICAL EXPERIENCE SAN FRANCISCO (May 19, 2021)—Today, internationally recognized arts leader David Dower announced the launch of Club Fugazi Experiences, a new arts and culture venture conceived and created by a team of celebrated and award-winning producers. Under this new venture, Club Fugazi—the former home of Steve Silver’s Beach Blanket Babylon—will become the site of a brand-new theatrical experience from the world-renowned circus and arts collective, The 7 Fingers. The intimate and immersive resident production, created by Bay Area natives and The 7 Fingers co-founders Gypsy Snider and Shana Carroll, will serve as a love letter to the City by the Bay. Performances of the new production will begin in Fall 2021. Tickets will go on-sale in late June 2021.

  • Ladysmith Black Mambazo Monday, February 16, 2004 Theater Etiquette and Experiences
    A Performing Arts Series For Children PRESENTED BY THE MADISON CIVIC CENTER Ladysmith Black Mambazo Monday, February 16, 2004 Theater Etiquette and Experiences We have a wonderful opportunity at this performance to help youth learn about attending live performances. Sometimes young people do not realize how a live performance differs from watching a movie or television show. Please discuss the following with your students: 1. A live presentation has not been pre-recorded with the mistakes edited out. This makes it riskier for the performer and more exciting for the audience. It also means the audience contributes to the overall event. Each audience member affects those around him/her as well as the performer. The audience gives energy to the performer who uses that energy to give life to the performance. 2. An usher will show you where to sit. Walk slowly and talk quietly as you enter the theater. 3. If necessary, use the restroom before the performance begins. 4. Once you are seated, you may talk quietly to the people next to you until the performance begins. 5. When the lights dim, it is the signal that the performance is about to start. Stop talking and turn your attention to the stage. 6. Stay in your seat throughout the entire performance. 7. During the performance, listen quietly and watch closely. Talking during the performance will distract others around you, and the performers may think you’re not interested in the show. 8. LAUGHING IS APPROPRIATE. (Teachers, please do not hush the students while they are laughing.) If something is funny, it’s good to laugh.
