Hi,
In response to a couple of queries, here is the schedule of S@W events for this weekend. I know that some of the Reunion folks will have some other commitments, but come join us if and when you can. The alumni brunch on Sunday at noon is a very casual affair--coffee, kolaches etc.--it is free and there is no need for reservations. We have done this each weekend for a different decade (00s, 90s, 80s), so this is the 70s weekend, but other alums who are around are welcome to stop by.
Tickets for all of these performances should be available at www.shakespeare-winedale.org (follow links 'schedule and tickets' and 'box office'). However, the August 14 Reunion performance is sold out.
We look forward to seeing you--
Thanks,
James

Dear Performers
On the eve of the reunion performance, my thoughts go to you, reliving the experience one more time:
- the intense physical, mental and emotional demands
- the heat
- the nagging thought what have I gotten myself into
- the heat
But you know how to drink it all in, don't you:
- the sunrises and sunsets
- the rehearsals in the barn
- Doc & the Bard
- each other
Tomorrow we are all coming to complete your experience. We will be the most adoring audience you could imagine, grateful, for the most part, that it us you, not us, muttering lines at dawn, slipping on tights, and taking that final pre-performance walk.
You are our heroes for doing this. You have succeeded just by showing up. You are all so gifted, but please don't be perfect. We want to laugh together about a few screw-ups. It will make the reunion even better!
We love you and we just can't wait.
Thanks in advance to everyone who has made this possible...
