News Release News Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PRESS CONTACT: Kate Jones Butler, Marketing Director ~ 415.694.6141 ~ [email protected] PRESS ROOM NEW CONSERVATORY THEATRE CENTER PRESENTS IT’S ONLY A PLAY BY TERRENCE MCNALLY REGIONAL PREMIERE OF NEW VERSION OF MCNALLY’S LOVE LETTER TO THE THEATRE San Francisco, CA (January 4, 2017) – In March, New Conservatory Theatre Center presents the regional premiere of Terrence McNally’s It’s Only a Play, in a newly revised version which marks McNally’s thirteenth production at NCTC. It’s opening night of Peter Austin’s new Broadway play, and while at the producer’s penthouse for a lavish party, he anxiously awaits the play’s reviews. With his career on the line and celebrities pouring in downstairs, he huddles upstairs with the producer, director and star of the show. This “gleefully bitchy and affectionate” (Entertainment Weekly) love letter to the theatre is the perfect setup for backstabbing comedy. It’s Only a Play runs March 2 – April 1, 2018. Opening Night is Saturday, March 10, 2018 at 8pm. Tickets are $25–50 and available at nctcsf.org, emailing [email protected] or by calling (415) 861-8972. Both a satire of and love letter to the theatre, It’s Only a Play originally opened off-off-Broadway in 1982 and was revived off-Broadway in 1986. This newly revision version, bringing the setting to present day and updated with contemporary theatre stars and shows, was a smash hit of the 2014-15 Broadway season, starring an all-star cast headed by Nathan Lane and Stockard Channing. The regional premiere at NCTC will be directed by Arturo Catricala. The updated It’s Only a Play dazzled audiences and critics: “This show is without a doubt hilariously, sidesplittingly funny,” raves the New York Times. “It’s Only a Play deserves only a rave.” “You really must laugh at McNally’s unquenchable wit,” declares Variety. “But those sloppy-kiss tributes to the theater…are deeply felt and honestly moving.” Audiences can enjoy these special events during the run of the show: Ed Decker Barbara Hodgen ARTISTIC DIRECTOR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR . Master Class with Martha T. Lipton (the failed actress), free pre-show improv class/party hosted by local "semi-professional theatre actress" (and drama teacher!) Martha T. Lipton – perfect for performers and non-performers alike! o Fridays in March at 7:15pm: March 2, 9, 16, 23, 30 . Onstage Insight, Post-Show Discussion after the following performances featuring the cast, moderated by the play’s director: o Sunday, March 18 at 2pm .

  • Visitor Pressure and Events in an Urban Setting
    Visitor Pressure and Events in an Urban Setting City Report - Tallinn, Estonia 2018 City Report -Tallinn, Estonia 2018 Centre of Expertise Leisure, Tourism & Hospitality Executive summary In the past years, the topic of visitor pressure and over-tourism in city destinations has reached worldwide media coverage. Although, it is very difficult to ascertain how and when visitor pressure becomes too high, preventing it should be a priority to city governments. Support of local residents is a prerequisite for sustainable tourism development. This report provides an overview of the current situation concerning visitor pressure in the city of Tallinn, as well as possible solutions and actions to be taken. The visitation of Tallinn increases year by year thus all the interviewed experts agreed that the problem of visitor pressure will not reduce but will increase in the near future. The number of visitors from international markets is continuously growing as well as the volume of cruise tourism. Restoration works in the Old Town and its surroundings are in progress allowing the visitors and the residents to use the town in various ways. Traffic regulations are ongoing however; the works will probably last for a couple of years before it is completed. Development and revitalization of neighbourhoods outside of the touristic hot spots are also in progress just like the development of the coastal area. Initiatives have been taken with regards to maximizing the economic benefits of tourism in connection to heritage protection, although such system is not in place yet. Communicating the financial and economic benefits of tourism towards the residents Colophon and creating wider awareness is also lacking.

Attendees are encouraged to make a contribution in lieu of purchasing a ticket and fifty percent of donations for performances will be shared with the artists featured.
