Doc, Of course I would love to participate. With the acknowledged issues, I still like the 2 play format. It gives some of opportunity for small yet delicious parts. One of my favorites was Dennis in AYLI. 3 words. "Calls your worship?" I think I carried a frying pan and wore a bandana. My kind of part. So count me in for a week in the country, much longer than Sondheim imagined in "A Weekend in the Country," from " A Little Night Music."
"With riotous laughter we quietly suffer The season in town, which is reason enough for A weekend in the country, How amusing, How delightfully droll. A weekend in the country, While we're losing Our control. A weekend in the country, How enchanting, On the manicured lawns. A weekend in the country, With the panting And the yawns. With the crickets and the pheasants And the orchards and the hay, With the servants and the peasants, We'll be laying our plans while we're playing croquet For a weekend in the country, So inactive That one has to lie down."

Only a few of you will remember that famous line spoken by Alice Gordon in 1973 at the end of The Tempest for which she won the Boatswain Award for good news. Major moment. You had to be there.
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 50thâcount âem f i f t yâ anniversary of Shakespeare at Winedale in 2020. So Iâd 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 âreunion committeeâ? What do you think? Iâm eager to get aâgoing.
With a hay and a ho and a hey nonny,
Doc
