Keynote Synopsis
Good Decision-Making
(It’s Not Just For Breakfast Anymore)
While breast cancer is the backdrop for this keynote, it is the approach to the disease — not the disease itself — which takes the lead. But with a twist. Rather than discuss the myriad ways each of us can choose to handle the critical moment, this presentation pinpoints what stops most women in their tracks and keeps them from being their own best advocates. It delivers a universal message by turning cancer into the next bump in the road. It gives answers, creates a roadmap, and makes cancer doable, because life is doable.
What Clients Have to Say…
Liza Vann and her ‘Top of the Bottom Half’ show are nothing short of SENSATIONAL! Her performance is — at the same time — touching, humorous, heartfelt and thought-provoking! She hooks the audience the moment she walks onto the stage and keeps them drawn in to her family and her world for the entire show, leaving you wanting — and begging for — more (which is the best way to leave an audience!).
Dear Liza,
Thank you for making our Breast Cancer Awareness Luncheon such a meaningful event for all of the 240 people in attendance. Your remarks to our gathering of supporters and early detection advocates were wonderful. I have had numerous follow-up conversations with attendees who were so enriched by your speech. Thank you so much for reaching our audience with your thoughtful remarks.
Dearest Liza,
Please accept our warmest and sincerest thanks to you for your repeat, fabulous performance of The Top of the Bottom Half on October 20, 2005. Our audience members, many of them dealing with cancer, were moved and challenged to look at things from a new perspective.
Dear Ms. Vann,
Bo Thorp and the staff at Cape Fear Regional Theatre extend our greatest appreciation to you for your presentaton of The Top of the Bottom Half for our breast cancer charitable event. By sharing your experience with breast cancer, you encouraged those in the audience to face the problem head on, to ask questions and to come to an intelligent and informed decision — whether as one facing the diagnosis, or a family member or friend to help with support during the process.
Dear Liza:
Thanks so much for speaking at our Sixth Annual Friends of Women’s Studies luncheon. Your presentation was great and we have received many positive comments about it. As you know, this luncheon allows us to raise money to fund our Women’s History Month lecture series as well as aspects of our annual Expanding Your Horizons in Math and Science conference for middle school girls. We were able to raise enough money to host both for another year!
Dear Liza,
Thank you so much for appearing as the featured speaker at the Sisko Foundation’s Raise A Racquet Against Breast Cancer annual Gala in Raleigh, NC on October 26, 2002. Your performance was heartwarming and intense. You managed to inject humor and drama into a serious and frightening subject. From the time you took the microphone, your performance essentially demystified a disease that has terrorized so many women, many of them sitting in the audience.
Not only is Liza Vann a gifted actress, able to hold an entire audience spellbound with her funny, touching, tender/tough show “The Top of the Bottom Half,” she is also a consummate communicator, able to drop onto a college campus, hit the deck running, and leave, in the wake of her three-day residency, ripples of insight, enthusiasm, and understanding — not to mention a sea of adoring student fans.
