Dear All,

An email about the Diversity of Kipling 24 hours of readings of Kipling’s works, from Bateman’s, on Saturday and Sunday, 12th and 13th August, from 2.00 p.m. on the Saturday.


The running order for Saturday and Sunday is still changing slightly. I have been able to insert some last minute requests only by moving others, so please check that your timing is still acceptable.  There are spare times, to allow for over-running, and we have both recorded and live material to fill any gaps, so the timings should be fairly reliable(!)


Scroll down to find it. Some people have been unable to open attachments.


This is the programme that will go on the Bateman’s Facebook page, and on the Kipling Society one. Also on those pages will be instructions for the link to the live streaming which will be on Youtube. We had hoped to use Facebook for that too, but their 24 hour system is not working properly yet.


So, tell your friends to look on Facebook for Kipling Society or Bateman’s and follow the link.


We will also be recording the whole twenty-four hours (something over 20 GB of information, we think!)


This listing does not include the ADVERT BREAKS (roughly hourly),  when I will tell people about  Bateman’s and the Kipling Society, the Reader’s Guide and our web site. If you have two long pieces together, they will be divided in this way, for your health’s sake!


I will be prepared to do an introduction to your piece (date of first publication, collection, any special circumstances), but if you have your own introduction, I will simply do the segue (name and title) for any later editing. Check that I know.


At the request of our hosts, we will be performing in Carrie’s Study, which is accessed from the Entrance Hall. We will have to use the hall as a ‘green room’, so please meet there.  Out of hours access is from the staff car park, but at all other times you can use the main car park, and we may well be able to use it at other times.


Visiting public will be able to listen, live, on the lawn below Carrie’s study, where there will be a Public Address loudspeaker (not a loud one, because of feed back and delay ).


I am enormously grateful to Bateman’s staff and volunteers, and  Society members, for supporting this project. Let’s hope we become a talking point on Twitter, and bring a few more into the Society, and along to Bateman’s.


Please do pass on the running order and details to anyone you can think of, in the media, who is able to offer us some interest.


All good wishes,

 

John
