Dear Terry,
This is hugely exciting. I do wish you success and can't wait to hear that it has
happened.
Love,
Gail

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

Dear FWW's,
Here are my 12 picks (sorry Alice!) (My excuse: "O for a Muse of Fire" and
Bottom's Dream are short and would make a great frame...):
* Taming Induction
* Henry V, Prologue -- "O for a Muse of Fire"
* 1 Henry IV (V, iv) -- Falstaff resurrected
* Henry V (V, ii) -- Henry courts Katherine
* Taming (II, i) -- Petruchio "courts" Katherine
* Comedy (III,I) -- "But soft my door is lock'd; go bid them let us
in"
* Lear (II, iv) -- "Shut up your doors"
* Lear (IV, vii) -- Lear/Cordelia Reconciliation
* Winter's Tale (III, ii)
* Winter's Tale (V, iii)
* 2 Henry IV, (III, ii) -- Shallow/Silence
* MND (V, i) --Bottom's Dream
At the risk of repeating myself, I love the tavern idea...
--Maggie

Dear Fellow 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 done and roles
disseminated by June 6, when the first session of Camp Shakespeare begins and Doc will be
all-consumed by it. To meet that deadline, we must strictly adhere to the ones leading up
to it.
Attached is the revised master list of scenes I sent you a few days ago. A a few people
weighed in with a more ideas. Also, Robert Jackson, please forgive me for not including
your list of scenes the first time around. It and newer material 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@earthlink.net<mailto:alicegordon@earthlink.net>. (I will immediately
forward all lists to Doc and the Committee. Just trying to give everyone only one email
address to type in.) Considering the themes we've all been talking about, please send
us your top ten scenes from the complete list. Feel free either to cherry-pick from the
list; to vote for one of the concepts sketched out or fully fledged by Gail, Robert P,
Robert J, or Matt; or to choose both concept and scenes to make your own list. (If I have
overlooked other concepts since the whole group has been talking, please remind us all as
soon as you can). Kathy and Jayne's and Clayton's proposals seem ways and examples
of how to approach any group of scenes once we're at Winedale, and feel free to state
your support or comments about such approaches as well. Our sense is that a lot of us are
excited about what they are suggesting.
Please keep in mind the time limit we've set forth and the 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 shorter scenes. Remember there will be weekenders
and audience pop-ups with whom we will share the matinee.
By June 2: Doc and Committee come up with final list of scenes. The committee and Doc will
look at the preferences mathematically, see what rises to the top, and then work out the
final choices by considering ensemble or what works better or what's more appropriate
for the context. Once we have the final list, it will be sent out to everybody. Please
keep an eye on your email inbox 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 would like to play or scenes you
would like to take part in. Once we get that information, 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
