A
SHORT NEWSLETTER THIS TIME; everyone – and I do
mean everyone – is still recovering from our incredible production
of Chicago.
And the sun is warm, and summer is almost here…..
And so is our annual Spring Frolic.
On Sunday, June 8th, to be exact, at 7:17 p.m., at 51 Walden. As always,
the technical types – lighting folks, props people, producers,
etc. – will put on a spoof of our season’s shows, so look
for ladies with fans, and something about a Good Seed. You get the idea.
There will be Heddie and Sally’s strawberry shortcake, too. Be
sure to come.
Filming of Thoreau – a Recreation ended last week, with Bob
Asher, an imposing Emerson, giving the eulogy for his friend in
the pulpit of our First Parish Church, Patricia
Till as Henry’s aunt, Dorothy
Schecter as Boston Brahmin Edna Littlehale, and Kate
Clarke a charming Ellen Sewell, plus David
Gould, David Bearg, and lots more. Come to 51 Walden on Saturday,
July 12th at 9 p.m. to celebrate Thoreau’s birthday with cake
and a 45-minute cutting from the film.
Editorial apologies, to Marilyn
Zavidow, for misspelling her name last month!
