Heat indeed. And now we start. The best class of Shakespeare at Winedale? Such competition, how tiresome and unnecessary. Really there is only one best class, and we all know it was the legendary Class of '75. The "Much Ado" will forever be remembered as a turning point in the history of Winedale. Not only for the fact that it was the first year a complete play was performed, but also for the use of the entire community and surroundings for the beginning, including the parade with  soldiers on horseback and the amazing Polka Dots marching ensemble. I really did not want to participate in such a discussion of "The Best..." but for sake of historical accuracy, I felt compelled to respond. I feel this should be the end of this discussion. Besides who the hell is Autolycus? Some ancestor of Odysseus? Oh now I remember. Wasn't he a character, a peddler or something, in one of those "problem" plays, "The Winters Tale." I recall seeing it in the barn perhaps in the 80's but the Reagan years all seem to blur together for some reason.  I vaguely recall a frozen statue and some pastoral nonsense involving sheep. I recall that the statue did a fine job of being a statue, outstanding in fact. So lets put an end to this petty "best of" nonsense. We are all proud Winedaleans. It is just that some of us have much more to be proud of as we approach this historic reunion than others.
Sincerely,
Jerald, proudly a member of the historic class of '75.

Doc,
 
David has thousands of fans so be prepared.  Start cooking, pull out the extra chairs, and just go ahead and expand the barn.  Has there ever been a better Autolycus at Winedale?  And now that I think about it, was there ever a better class (Summer ’86)?
 
Just thought I’d try to heat up this list-serv a bit.

While we have not made final arrangements for everything I can report this with some degree of confidence:



1)  Performance is at 2:00, n'est-ce pas?
 
            Yes.


2)  Is there a banquet or bbq or meal and further celebrations afterwards?
 
            Yes.


3)  Until what time is above event to unfold?
 
            Probably about 7.


4)  Are we out of Winedale that evening, out of our accomodations?  (Sp)
 
            No.  You have reservations for the evening of the 14.


5)  Or are we staying through the evening and vacating on August 15?
 
            Yes.  After breakfast. 


Sorry to have to ask someone to repeat him or herself, but fans are lining up and would like me to clarify these details.
 
            Just how many "fans" are you talking about?


Looking forward (you can't IMAGINE how much) to being with you all!

David

The New Busy think 9 to 5 is a cute idea. Combine multiple calendars with Hotmail. Get busy.
