Hi. I am re-sending my Feb 25th message to the new list in the event that some of you did not receive it earlier. I'd appreciate yoour assistance. Thanks, Doc
“And the best news is” (says the Boatswain in The Tempest) that Camp Shakespeare will be celebrating its 12th summer with two spirited and likely very musically boisterous sessions for campers, ending in performances of The Comedy of Errors and Twelfth Night. It’s going to be a twin bill for sure.
The sessions run from June 8-June 21 and June 29- July 12. Once again, we will be performing on the final Thursdays at the Crystal Theater in Gonzales, Tx; on the final Fridays, at Henkel Hall in Round Top; and on the final Saturdays, in the barn at Winedale. We will have all of that information on the shakespeare-winedale.org site.
We are planning a special fund-raising “Twelfth Night Dinner/ Performance in air-conditioned Henkel Hall on Friday evening, July 11, at 7:00 p.m. Cost will be $50.00 per seat. We will have a catered dinner, a live and silent auction and a brilliant in-the-round performance of Twelfth Night. Save the date! We hope to place net income from the Gala in the endowment founded by Jayne and Rick Suhler.
This letter is also an invitation to support the operating fund of Camp Shakespeare ’14. Last year, former students and folks in the community contributed over $15,000 to the program. Former Shakespeare at Winedale students were leaders in that effort. Our goal this year is the same: $15,000. I’d like your help with that.
So if you can, please send your check to me at P.O. Box 202, Round Top, Tx, 78954, make it “TO” The University of Texas and mark it “FOR” Camp Shakespeare.
I look forward to hearing from you and seeing you once again at Winedale!
Cheers,
Doc
