Hey Guys!
Just sent Al my top picks. But wanted to let you guys know that I'm off to Shands
tomorrow to have my implant turned on. I will be there the next two days as they begin to
train me to hear.
Wish me success!
love,
Terry

DearFellow Winedale Weeklongians,
On behalf of Doc and the Committee of Cheerleaders, I hereby emit a big Go,Team, Go!
We would like to get the whole scenes-choosing and role-casting process doneand roles
disseminated by June 6, when the first session of Camp Shakespearebegins and Doc will be
all-consumed by it. To meet that deadline, we muststrictly adhere to the ones leading up
to it.
Attached is the revised master list of scenes I sent you a few days ago. A afew people
weighed in with a more ideas. Also, Robert Jackson, please forgiveme for not including
your list of scenes the first time around. It and newermaterial is now included and marked
in bold-face type.
Here is the process just ahead:
By Midnight, MAY 31: Send your top ten scenes to alicegordon(a)earthlink.net. (I will
immediately forward all lists to Doc and the Committee. Justtrying to give everyone only
one email address to type in.) Considering thethemes we’ve all been talking about, please
send us your top ten scenes fromthe complete list. Feel free either to cherry-pick from
the list; to votefor one of the concepts sketched out or fully fledged by Gail, Robert P,
RobertJ, or Matt; or to choose both concept and scenes to make your own list. (If Ihave
overlooked other concepts since the whole group has been talking, pleaseremind us all as
soon as you can). Kathy and Jayne’s and Clayton’sproposals seem ways and examples of how
to approach any group of scenes oncewe’re at Winedale, and feel free to state your support
or comments aboutsuch approaches as well. Our sense is that a lot of us are excited about
whatthey are suggesting.
Please keep in mind the time limit we’ve set forth andthe number of participants in
each scene. Doc urges us to favor ensemble scenes(six or more characters) in the balance,
and also to balance longer and shorterscenes. Remember there will be weekenders and
audience pop-ups with whom wewill share the matinee.
By June 2: Doc and Committee come up with final list of scenes. Thecommittee and Doc will
look at the preferences mathematically, see what risesto the top, and then work out the
final choices by considering ensemble or whatworks better or what’s more appropriate for
the context. Once we have thefinal list, it will be sent out to everybody. Please keep an
eye on your emailinbox that day.
By June 3: Your requests or preferences, if any. When you get that list,please let us know
if you have very special preferences for roles you wouldlike to play or scenes you would
like to take part in. Once we get thatinformation, we’ll have at the casting.
June 5: Deadline for roles to be cast.
June 6: List of roles sent to whole group.
Courage! This will mean a fast week-plus coming up.
Make your best haste,
All best wishes,
Alice
