PLEASE CHECK OUT THE GROUP ON FACEBOOK FOR MORE INFORMATION OR TO HELP WITH THE SEARCH FOR THE TRUTH. https://www.facebook.com/groups/48484318100/ OR MICKEY'S WEBSITE AT http://elvisconspiracy.webs.com/ Cheers & TCB! I'm going to post sightings, leads and research here. I'll post this information as I go along, so you can see some of the information I'm using to move forward. FROM ME: WE REALLY APPRECIATE THE EMAILS WE RECEIVE FROM FANS. LET US KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY INTERESTING NEWS. THANKS, ADAM 3/14/07 Hi Adam, I finally had the chance to read "Elvis & Me by Priscilla and thought I'd share a little info with you. As I read the book, I really find it hard to believe that Priscilla would put some of the information she has in the book if Elvis was alive. There is quite a bit of their intimacy moments in the book and knowing what I've read about the two of them, it's hard to believe Priscilla even sharing this information. All I know is that I have very mixed feelings about the whole Elvis thing. Is it a money gimmick and/or just to keep Elvis and themselves in the limelight light. I do know that people are out to make a buck off of him. Some of those addresses on People Search are phony and they shouldn't be allowed to rip people off by using his middle initial and date of birth.

  • TFTV 2019 2020 Season Brochure
    SEASON CONTENT ART PRODUCTIONS & ADDITIONAL THEATRE EVENTS TICKETING & BOX OFFICE INFORMATION FILM & TELEVISION WELCOME TO THE 2019-20 SEASON! It’s July 2019 and I have just arrived in Tucson after a cross-country drive to begin an exciting adventure as the Director of the School of Theatre, Film & Television. As I write, our stages and rehearsal halls are quiet; our screening rooms and editing suites are dark; our working shops and classrooms are restocked and ready. Soon they will thrum with the creative life of a next generation of artists, young souls we faculty and staff are so privileged to guide for a few years on their journey to big lives of artistry – no matter their chosen profession. Soon, I will meet many of you and come to know the University of Arizona and Tucson as my home. For me it’s an exciting time of new visions, new relationships, and great work waiting to be done. Here, in the pages of this brochure, we invite Andy Belser, Director you, our treasured audiences, to witness our students as they meet you on stage, School of Theatre, Film and Television screen and page with their emerging skills of artistry and scholarship. At times of transition, I go to poetry. I offer this touch of Pablo Neruda’s “La Poesia” as a reminder for our students, and for us all, to begin each day and year wide open and ready for surprise. Anything can happen. and I wrote the first bare line, bare, without substance, pure foolishness, pure wisdom of one who knows nothing, and suddenly I saw the heavens unfastened and open.
