The National Geographic Live series had three much-anticipated events scheduled in the first quarter of 2021, some of which had been rescheduled from 2020 due to COVID- 19 cancellations. All three events – Ronan Donovan, Kara Cooney and Andy Mann MANN – have been post- poned again with hopes to confirm new dates in the near future.

Anand Varma & Prasenjeet working with National Geographic “We’re so thankful for the support Yadav See Series on page 22 u and patience of our patrons and our sponsors as we wait until we can gather in person to experience the fascinating storytelling and globe-trot- ting adventure of National Geographic Live,” said Ty Sutton, Dayton Live President and CEO. “This new streaming option is a great way to con- tinue to engage with our patrons. I’m particularly excited that the live aspect of these events is preserved with a live moderated conversation and Q&A time after each 60-minute streamed video with not one, but two Nat Geo Explorers.” Many arts groups have pursued streaming performances and events with gusto, but Dayton Live has been more careful. “We’ve been highly selective about choosing streaming options to present to our audiences,” Sutton explained. “There are a lot of options out there, but we wanted to be sure the content was high quality and unique. National Geographic has such a reputation for excellence – and with the popularity of this series, this decision was an easy one.” Back in December, Dayton Live surveyed patrons of the National Geographic Live series about the option of streamed events and received positive feedback as well as recom- mendations on which events had the most appeal. The three events on offer reflect that feedback.
