Trotcon returns this year with an interesting little John de Lancie event in tow. If you are a fan of a certain chaos king, or just thing their OC pony is cute (cause she is), head on down below the break for the infos!
So,
John de Lancie is coming to TrotCon. You might have heard about it. You
might have heard of him. You might have heard of TrotCon. If not, hi,
we’re TrotCon. And we have John de Lancie stopping by in July.
With
an actor as prolific and multi-talented as de Lancie, who you might
know best as the voice of Discord on My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
or Q on Star Trek, we simply had to do something fun with him aside
from the usual panels you’ve come to expect — which is why we’re
exceedingly excited to announce a special ticketed event during TrotCon 2016: “In Defense of Poetry” with John de Lancie.
What’s
up with poetry and why is John de Lancie appearing at an event on it?
Simple: he’s got an essay of the same name and he wants to share it with
you. Afterward, he’s looking to have a discussion with attendees on
poetry and the like, with John speaking to his own connections with
learning to read, poetry and much, much more. He’ll even read a couple
of other poems during the one-and-a-half-hour engagement.
This
isn’t like normal events, and as such there will be a $20 charge to
enter “In Defense of Poetry,” doable either on Eventbrite before the
convention or at the door. However, tickets are included if you purchase
an Alicorn- or Draconequus-tier sponsor badge. Haven’t gotten one of
those? What are you waiting for?! It’s badges like these that help us to
bring you more awesome pony content each year, like John de Lancie this
year and such great folks as Andrea Libman, Kelly Sheridan, M.A.
Larson, Peter New and much more in the past.
Oh,
also, before we forget! Official prices for John de Lancie autograph
vouchers are here. They’ll be $30 each, and you can also purchase on
Eventbrite before the convention if you so choose.
We’ve got John de Lancie, a score of community guests including Pixelkitties and TJ Carson of Ask Pirate Dash, and we’re not done yet. Keep an eye on trotcon.net, y’all — we’re six months away and we’re pleased as punch to bring you another convention for the fifth time.
