Dylan and Jeana-Dee Rogers–Band/Theatre Owners
Dylan and Jeana-Dee Rogers, members of The Lansing Unionized Vaudeville Spectacle (a 16-plus member band) and creators of the soon-to-open REO Town Robin Theatre, have a multitude of collaborative experiences to share.

Show us what you can do!
This event will also include a Q & A and a small-group exercise. Attendees and panelists will break into small groups and be given a mock collaborative scenario. Groups will then work together to create a sample project and get their collaborative skills activated in the process.
