Saw this today and thought: As usual, already been done at Winedale.... Fascinating story, and from the performers' ages listed, we've got a few more reunions in us indeed! http://www.guardian.co.uk/stage/2010/mar/14/juliet-and-her-romeo-bristol-ol… cs

New York City theater
by Pees, Robert 02 Jun '11

02 Jun '11

For those of you who live in or may be visiting New York City this summer, I can share two hearty recommendations with you: (1) Sleep No More (Punchdrunk Theatre Company), an extraordinary production inspired by, among other things, Macbeth, and (2) Jerusalem, in which Mark Rylance portrays a character almost as Falstaffian as Falstaff.

Midnight in Paris
by Maggie Megaw 27 May '11

27 May '11

Meant to write on Sunday after seeing the picture Saturday night-9:30 screening, sold out, as were the two preceding screenings. Loved the movie-full of charm and smitten with Paris. Most fun out at the movies in a long while. Congratulations, Michael. xxxm maggie megaw | business affairs, inc | 2415 main street santa monica ca 90405 | ph 310 954 8440 | fx 310 362 8707 This message contains information that may be confidential and/or privileged.

Mary makes a good point Perhaps it is that which allows you to stay human and successful in hollywood... Big hug and congrats Very proud to know you (all)!

One of the things I admire in you, Michael, is that you love movies and the people who make them so much that, notwithstanding all the players' foibles and all the stories, some of which you share, your admiration and support of them just shines through. I think you are full of love.

I was impressed but unmoved by Branagh's technical virtuosity in "Celebrity" in channeling Woody Allen. Casting Wilson at the outset means you're necessarily going to get something different from what Allen himself or Branagh-playing-Allen would give you. --m On Thursday, May 26, 2011, Matt Kozusko <kozusko(a)mac.com> wrote: > > The 1997 class also lost a *Two Gents* student to early departure, > though the particular circumstances were quite different.

request for help with daughter's prom/graduation
by Mike Godwin 15 May '11

15 May '11

Dear folks, I'm wondering if one or more of you could put me up in Austin in early June when I'm out there for Ariel's high-school graduation. Lots of relatives visiting, so trying to minimize home family stress. Any reasonable offer (and some pretty unreasonable ones) will be considered. Ariel, in case you haven't heard, has decided to go to college at some state school in Iowa. Some scholarship or something. --m
