Learn why this is important Clayton & Steve, what a nice piece of memorabilia!

What year was that? 1980s? KOBP and Shoemaker’s Holiday were the first non-Shakespeare plays out at Winedale once y’all started doing full plays, is that right? Or no?   I’m writing a chapter dedicated to KOBP for my book on citizenship with Arden/Bloomsbury press and I’ve already given a talk based on my work using pics from the ASC Blackfriars production. I’d love to incorporate/celebrate some images from Winedale as well in future presentations!   Doc, how did y’all stage the citizen and wife when they say they’ll sit down on stage? Did you use benches on stage?   Cheers, all!   Casey -- Be vigitant, I beseech you! --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Shakespeare at Winedale Email List" group.
