Well, ya’ll. Never in my wildest dreams did I think something silly like a sheduling problem would shut us down. And not after five months of hard work especially. But we’re not done yet.
I hope to do a staged reading on September 11 in the MercLab. Expect to be contacted about this by either me or Karin Silet in the next week. And come next spring I would like to see us put this on for real, though that will depend on, of course, scheduling everybody. Unfortunately we will lose our beloved Amy by then, and it looks like DB will be moving on as well, so there will be a couple holes to fill. But beyond them, I hope as many of you as possible will be available.
I love you all, and I appreciate the hard work you’ve put into making this production a reality. Until it is, just keep chanting every night as you fall asleep at night: “In Troy, there lies the scene…”
It’s not over ’til the fat Greek sings

Speaking of filling holes: Ain’t no other chick gettin what’s mine! Uh, I mean Helen… I’ll be there and square Sept. 11 and beyond hopefully. Wearing a crownet regal or not.
I want to thank everyone who was truly committed to this show. My experience working on T&C was a great one despite scheduling conflicts and the like. I found magic in our explorations of Greece and Troy, and Cressida will live with me for many many years. I do hope that you can come to the table next year and put the production up- it deserves it and you deserve it. I will miss everyone dearly, but will still be in Madison for the reading and for the better part of Sept. After that, I am set to study voice & performance in Nimes, France. You can bet that I’ll be working on monologues from the show whilst I’m there. Take care everyone, and keep living/breathing Shakespeare.
Love,
amy
