The National Artistic Effort, in collaboration with the Carnegie
Mellon's Graduate Opera Program, Make a Difference Day Foundation,
and Pittsburgh Action Against Rape will be hosting The 2002
Pittsburgh Benefit Weekend. The event will culminate with two
performances of Leonard Bernstein's Trouble in Tahiti on Friday, May
10 and Saturday, May 11 at 8:00 P.M. in the Kresge Theatre at
Carnegie Mellon's College of Fine Arts.

The National Artistic Effort is a national organization founded by
CMU graduate Ja-Naé Duane in 2001, which strives to unite artists in
order to facilitate positive change within our communities. The
proceeds from this weekend's event will benefit NAE and Pittsburgh
Action Against Rape.

Director Jonathan Eaton (Artistic Director of the Opera Theatre of
Pittsburgh) and Musical Director Sean Kelly team up for the first
time to create this innovative production. Bernstein's light musical
touch, an amplified doo-wop trio, jazzy rhythms and touching lyricism
make this production of Trouble in Tahiti especially poignant.
