¡Feliz Cumpleaños, Méd!
Michael and all have have said it so well. The excitement and eagerness I saw in the eyes of 4th graders I worked with today -- "More lines!" said many, "A smoke machine for the Banquo murder scene!" insisted a little buzz-headed boy -- is a direct testament to the utterly unique way in which you brought these texts into our hearts.
Most of all, I honor your vigitance today, as Dogberry might say. It has not wavered from the first day I sat in your lamp-lit office and heard you talk about this place I'd never been, about how the students would stay up late in this barn doing improvisations, and hustle back from lunch so as not to miss a moment… how they grew to become an ensemble, and shared, and gave, and loved. I heard: an invitation. And it goes on, I see, as your soul prompts it. Thanks and ever thanks for that.
Love to you and your sweet wife and that great grand family and that funny dog,
-- Clayton

Happy Birthday Doc.
I can't imagine what it must feel like to have a legacy like yours, which starts with kids, Shakespeare and a barn and from there keeps on giving year in year out. On top of the actual initial volatile experience, you, Doc, get to see the ramifications of that experience 10, 20, 30, even 40 years later. Just think of the sheer number of people whose lives have been changed by you. Incredible.
We love you, your legacy lives forever. Happy Birthday, Doc. I would sing it, but I hate that song.

Happy Birthday, Doc! Thank you for getting me started on the path to my life long ambition of doing all Shakespeare's plays and instilling me with the passion to get it done.
