Me too! Me too! Two plays--or three, according to Doc's 3-play Summer tradition? Why not? At Winedale, anything is possible.
I'm always up for hosting pre-2020 meet-ups at Scottish Rite Theater if that's helpful and convenient.
I love you, Doc, and I'm also eager to make hay while the sun shines.

Well, the best news now is that the kids in Camp Shakespeare explored new worlds and met delightful inhabitants in Navarre (LLL), Sicilia and Bohemia (WT) and celebrated their discoveries for wonderful audiences. We had another great summer. Thanks to those of you who contributed to their success through gift and audience. We are growing another generation of Shakespeareans, many of them sons and daughters of you guys.
We are also approaching the 50th—count ‘em f i f t y— anniversary of Shakespeare at Winedale in 2020. So I’d like to hear some suggestions about how to celebrate THIS reunion. A week in the country again? Two plays again? Or one? Yes, it is early, but this one is big and may be my last, alas. So please give it some thought. I guess that we would once again need a “reunion committee”? What do you think? I’m eager to get a’going.
With a hay and a ho and a hey nonny,
Doc
