Excellent idea, Robert! And because I am usually averse to "Reply All" I will 
repeat my private message to Doc: I'M IN!! Teach me how I might serve!! I have 
more time than some. One suggestion I have is to start early on music-making. 

Play on!

Re: [Winedale-l] The best news is . .. ..

[polybear]

Tremendous idea, Clayton. Gives a whole new meaning to "the great  
Globe itself."


Quoting Clayton Stromberger :


Robert —

Love all these ideas, and thanks for the reminder about the  
Weekenders performances, which were really for me the highlight of  
that day in 2010, looking back.  I can remember everyone of them  
vividly, especially Leigh Hopper as Charla the Wrestler demolishing  
Don Brode’s Orlando with sensual cruelty — I hadn’t laughed that  
hard in years.


And if I wrote a missive, forgive me, not my intent….! I had been  
writing all day and I think my chatty fingers didn’t realize how  
fast they were talking.  There may have been a margarita (or two)  
involved as well.  I wasn’t trying to really argue a point; I think  
what I was trying to express was a gentle skepticism not about  
anyone meeting up in Austin per se but about a “weeklong" crew  
trying to meet early when not everyone could be there together at  
the start.  I think it would have been hard to get our rude  
mechanicals together, say, in 2015, given how busy everyone was  
leading up to that week.


Doc you had a great point on this: Let’s not worry yet about what we  
can’t do.  Well said.  All of these ideas are positive and exciting.


Next, real quick, while I have you:  Jon I think the music idea is  
brilliant too and would be wonderful to have a whole performance  
just of songs from over the years, yes.


And finally, one new idea to toss in, inspired by what I’ve heard so  
far:  I keep thinking about folks who might not be able to come to  
Texas that week or weekend, for whatever reason, but would really  
want to play and celebrate too.  With all the high-tech whizzes who  
have gone through the program, seems like we could create a “virtual  
Barn” somehow that would gather streamed or filmed performances by  
alumni all over the planet on a special reunion website.  With the  
three year lead time we should be able to write a grant for  
something like that.


I am involved in a small way with a project an English prof is doing  
in the spring semester (John Rumrich) in which he’s going to attempt  
to connect two different groups of students studying Shakespeare,  
one at UT and one in Hangzhou, China, as part of a “Global  
Classrooms” initiative sponsored by the International Office at UT.   
The idea is to have each group explore plays and scenes and then  
somehow through the magic of streaming create a simultaneous shared  
performance (the Chinese class would meet at 8 a.m., the UT one in  
the evening occasionally, so you can have the exchange of ideas,  
conversation, performances).  So you might have the Chinese team  
playing the fairies and the UT students playing the lovers, say,  
using screens so everyone can see each other live.


That’s kind of what made me think of a virtual Barn, after reading  
Carl’s note, and now yours too Robert, as a way of widening the  
circle even bigger (we the globe can compass soon...).  I am  
clueless about the technology, but this could be an innovative model  
for other former-student groups, perhaps?  And something that could  
live on digitally?  There might be folks at UT who could help  
visualize how this might work and figure out how to find funding for  
it and I’d be happy to pursue this notion and would love to hear any  
thoughts if this seems worth exploring.


Cheers,

cs

Clayton's missive when he was on leave from the past sparked some  
thoughts in my mind. With regard to meeting up in Austin before all  
congregate at Winedale, I concede his point that it's a challenge to  
build a sense of ensemble that way, but as a member of the weekend  
reunion company in 2010, I feel that we managed to do that. Granted,  
we were a smallish group, but the mindset and enthusiasm and spirit  
of play were all in place every time we got together, and we had  
only a day or two at Winedale before we performed, but I felt that  
we bonded pretty well in that time and had a lot of fun pulling our  
scenes together. (God bless the late Lizz Ketterer for being such an  
inspiration there.) That's to say I think meeting beforehand in  
Austin or elsewhere is still worth considering as we discuss how to  
mine more reunion time together out of the days leading up to the  
50th.


I've also been thinking about all the alums who might not be able to  
set aside a full week to spend at Winedale before the reunion but  
who might want to participate in some way. What if each of those  
folks were assigned a sonnet or a Kenneth Patchen poem (!), and at  
some point everyone who had one could perform theirs under the pecan  
trees, the way the weekend reunion class did its scenes in 2010?  
It'd be a nod to the early days when Doc would

[Thomas, Eric]

Clayton and Robert - thanks for all the creative ideas about ways for alums to 
participate!  I don't see myself being at Winedale for a week, or perhaps even 
a weekend, but I do want to recognize, support, and consider participating in 
this remarkable occasion.

Re: [Winedale-l] The best news is . .. ..

[Jerald Head]

Doc,
Of course I would love to participate. With the acknowledged issues, I still 
like the 2 play format. It gives some of opportunity for small yet delicious 
parts. One of my favorites was Dennis in AYLI. 3 words. "Calls your worship?" I 
think I carried a frying pan and wore a bandana. My kind of part.
So count me in for a week in the country, much longer than Sondheim imagined in 
"A Weekend in the Country," from " A Little Night Music."

"With riotous laughter we quietly suffer
The season in town, which is reason enough for
A weekend in the country,
How amusing,
How delightfully droll.
A weekend in the country,
While we're losing
Our control.
A weekend in the country,
How enchanting,
On the manicured lawns.
A weekend in the country,
With the panting
And the yawns.
With the crickets and the pheasants
And the orchards and the hay,
With the servants and the peasants,
We'll be laying our plans while we're playing croquet
For a weekend in the country,
So inactive
That one has to lie down."

Jerald

To me, nothing embodies the unique beauty and value of this program better than 
performances.
But considering the magnitude of the anniversary (and what it means in regard 
to changed lives), it might befun to have time to think about other ways to 
mark the anniversary during a reunion week.
For example, without setting sail for producing an encyclopedia, is there some 
kind of print piece that couldcelebrate/memorialize what the last 50 years have 
meant, and thank Doc for putting it all in motion?
Something could be done online as well/instead. 
If everyone from the last 50 years who might want to come stay in the country 
can’t be accommodated (orcan’t make it for whatever reason), are there 
meaningful/satisfying ways they could contribute? 
I imagine a good number of these eloquent folks would be able to put something 
in writing about how Winedale changed them, for example. 
Something like that could get started well in advance, and could be posted 
online without creating anexcessive burden on Clayton (or others) or involving 
big expense. I could help with that, if desired.
Maybe there are other ways to engage alumni as well. 
The play’s the thing, but if everyone can’t be on stage, I think it would be 
fun to find ways to present as many voices from the past 50 years as possible. 
Aside from the inclusion factor, this could result in a worthy representation 
of just how much good Doc and the program have accomplished.
There might be “events” along the way as well, before or during the week, that 
could contribute to all this.Thinking about that well in advance could help 
sort through the possibilities, what can realistically be executed,etc.
Some thoughts, as requested.
Love to all,Carl

Me too! Me too! Two plays--or three, according to Doc's 3-play Summer 
tradition? Why not? At Winedale, anything is possible. 
I'm always up for hosting pre-2020 meet-ups at Scottish Rite Theater if that's

The junior member from Chicago says, aye! I'd be honored to join you all
again, if you'll have me!

I loved doing a whole play with you guys, and I gained a lot from getting
to sit in on each other's work in the nights prior to final performances.

As a grad on a limited budget, it will be hard for me to come in for
planning meetings, but I'll help out any way I can!

Re: [Winedale-l] The best news is . .. ..

[Clayton Stromberger]

Inne!  (the Elizabethan spelling)

I love that line and I don’t remember being there to hear it spoken by Alice 
(though now I’m pausing to imagine it, and Alice, you sound wonderful, I can 
feel the joy of reunion in it).  I was 12 and was probably at Lost Pines Boy 
Scout Camp with Troop 1 demonstrating my ineptitude with knots yet again and so 
I missed the boat, so to speak, on that performance.  But I can certainly still 
hear and see Jeff Larsen in 1983 busting out those words with a full tank of 
air (and full beard) from the balcony, Dave Sharpe grinning jauntily beside him 
and punctuating Jeff’s line about the Master “capering to aye her” by propping 
his foot triumphantly up on the railing and planting his elbow on his knee as 
if to say, “How about THAT, matey?!”

I feel fairly certain Jeff won the Boatswain Award that year as well.

I confess to being a bit disoriented upon receipt of these emails, but happily 
so, as I was knee deep and inch thick in the middle of the last reunion 
mentally and emotionally (and archivally…. for those of you who weren’t in the 
2015 class, I have been working for some time on a written account of some of 
that week, as much as I can tell well, and I’ve promised it absolutely 
positively by the 2nd anniversary of the 45th anniversary, and Alice is 
awaiting a draft to edit this Sunday….) — and in fact I had just been 
re-reading your one-year-out invitation for 2015, Doc, when your 
three-years-out trumpet call for 2020 came in.

As they say, if you’re one year early for something like this you’re actually 
two years late, so thank you Doc for teaching us once again what it means to 
truly be prepared for the big moment.  Carly Simon would have to admit that 
nobody does it better than you.

I must continue to dwell in the reunion of 2015 by my own spell (i.e. by my own 
challenges as a writer) until I can be released by the help of my own two hands 
as they move across the keyboard in what my prayers hope will be flowing chain 
of letters and spaces.  The gentle breath of many of you has filled my sails 
and my Word documents, and my project is still to please; but I must leave the 
island soon and I hope you can pardon the delayer once he delivers his 
manuscript.

After that every third thought will be seeing as many of you as possible and 
playing with as many of you as possible in the summer of 2020 and especially 
lots of folks new to the reunion experience.  It’s so cool to already hear the 
new voices in these responses.  In the true spirit of Winedale, the circle 
keeps expanding (hi Shanna, Maria, Adarsh, Aubrey…!)

Before I go back to the island of the 2015 reunion (I was given a 10-minute 
pass to the present day but the ferry is waiting) I’ll toss in a few shells and 
sand dollars:  To my ear the working-in-town-a-bit-before idea is interesting, 
as any extra time of playing together and hearing those words and listening to 
one another is all to the good; but the main problem for many of us would 
continue to be getting a big chunk of time clear and free, and I think it would 
be difficult to find a way for a large group to feel like an ensemble in 
Austin, living in different places, coming to different spaces, before heading 
out to Round Top/ Winedale for time together.

Maybe the reunion could be 8-10 days out in Fayette County instead of 7, all 
together?  I know the departure of the summer class is an element in the time 
window.  Two weeks would be impossible for many folks, but maybe even a few 
extra days could have an impact?  How to do that and still have the celebration 
on a weekend for out of town visitors and family is a challenge too.

I would be thrilled at the idea of three groups diving into three plays at 
once, though then you have a new challenge of the third space — unless two 
groups could share Winedale?  With Hazel’s and the pecan shade and the 
dormitory classrooms there would be room to spread out and occasionally get out 
of the AC, though I know there is a new director at Winedale and I have not met 
her and don’t know how much that would cost.

There was much discussion two years ago and afterwards about the tradeoff of 
doing two plays (the two ensembles can really only cross paths briefly, since 
there is much to do and not much time in which to do it) but I think the 
Wednesday night explosion of play where each group shared an hour’s worth of 
work-so-far proved that something remarkable can happen when you can take a 
turn being in the audience and then have an opportunity to be swept up in and 
inspired by the incredible work of a fellow team of players.  That gave us a 
boost that nothing else could have given. Winedale at its best is a place where 
we learn much from each other, and I think that night was a vibrant living 
proof of that.  So I’d love to be a part of more of that sharing.  The idea of 
Camp graduates being a part of it is exciting too.  We are all your students 
Doc, that is really clear when

I would love a chance to contribute to this effort. 

To me, nothing embodies the unique beauty and value of this program better than 
performances.

But considering the magnitude of the anniversary (and what it means in regard 
to changed lives), it might be
fun to have time to think about other ways to mark the anniversary during a 
reunion week.

For example, without setting sail for producing an encyclopedia, is there some 
kind of print piece that could
celebrate/memorialize what the last 50 years have meant, and thank Doc for 
putting it all in motion?

Something could be done online as well/instead. 

If everyone from the last 50 years who might want to come stay in the country 
can’t be accommodated (or
can’t make it for whatever reason), are there meaningful/satisfying ways they 
could contribute? 

I imagine a good number of these eloquent folks would be able to put something 
in writing about how 
Winedale changed them, for example. 

Something like that could get started well in advance, and could be posted 
online without creating an
excessive burden on Clayton (or others) or involving big expense. I could help 
with that, if desired.

Maybe there are other ways to engage alumni as well. 

The play’s the thing, but if everyone can’t be on stage, I think it would be 
fun to find ways to 
present as many voices from the past 50 years as possible. Aside from the 
inclusion factor, this 
could result in a worthy representation of just how much good Doc and the 
program have accomplished.

There might be “events” along the way as well, before or during the week, that 
could contribute to all this.
Thinking about that well in advance could help sort through the possibilities, 
what can realistically be executed,
etc.

Some thoughts, as requested.

Love to all,
Carl

Please count me in! I like the idea of getting together to discuss. I loved 
doing whole plays rather than scenes. Scottish Rite is a great place to meet. 
And my home is open for out-of-towners to stay! Love you all, lynn

50? Seriously?
Can't be.

Thank you, Doc, for the lead time.

I have a history of nightmares in which I am on stage and have not
memorized my lines. I think the only way to clear this is to partake and
participate in reunion this time even though I live way up here in
Massachusetts. I'm ready to dive in. Let me know. Count me in.

And yes-- as I can attest-- the Scottish Rite is the perfect pre-meeting

I like sweet Maggie’s idea of finding some extra time if that’s possible for 
some or all. Should we also consider “best of” scenes again? We did that in ’05 
and it was a lot of fun. Gives everyone a chance to do big things and small, 
and stretch and pull. May also be a way to bring in more people, young and old.

time about finding an extra week for rehearsals by starting with a week in 
Austin and then moving out to Round Top for week 2, and that still sounds good 
to me--I'd love to have a bit more time with the plays and with all of you. But 
I am game for whatever we decide to do, wherever we will be, and for however 
long we can swing it. And I'm ready to help with planning.
Love to you all!!!

I would love to be a part of the 2020 reunion! I am not sure what being on
the Reunion committee would entail, but I am happy to support however I can
(from Los Angeles for now).

Re: [Winedale-l] The best news is . .. ..

[Bruce Meyer]

My initial thoughts:
 I like the reunion committee as it takes some pressure off you Doc and 
allows a way to get organized before we arrive. Plus, it gave us the longest 
lead time of any reunion so we could learn lines and coordinate costuming.
 I think that committing to two plays allows more people to participate and 
(despite the frustration of having to separate the groups during the day) it 
gives the opportunity to stretch and push each other. I suspect that we are all 
a bit slow of study as more of us will be covered by Medicare or close to it…
 I think that we would need clear goals to accomplish in the “meetup or 
two” to justify doing that, but would never pass up an opportunity to hang out 
with Shakespeareans from Winedale!
 Would also ask Doc to think about how we might incorporate alumni from the 
Camp Shakespeare experience – I suspect that we can all learn from each other…

For me, 2015 was hugely challenging, in different ways than previous
reunions had been--and it was the best, just because I was more
challenged and in ways I'd never been before. Apart from the retreats
idea (which may need to be reframed into something more useful or
practical), I just want to keep stretching, keep learning how to go
beyond my comfort zone, and I've learned, thanks to all of you and
especially to you, Doc, to keep doing that.

(Also, Camp Shakespeare folks? Cool!)

I think Mike has a good approach. Meet a couple of times to focus. I'm so 
disappointed to have missed this summer. But I'm very motivated to assist with 
the forward movement of a fiftieth anniversary celebration. My Gosh!!

Re: [Winedale-l] The best news is . .. ..

[Mike Godwin]

I want to circulate the idea that maybe we could do a meetup or
retreat (or two) before 2020, mainly to think through what we might do
in 2020 that builds on what we've done before.

For me, 2015 was hugely challenging, in different ways than previous
reunions had been--and it was the best, just because I was more
challenged and in ways I'd never been before. Apart from the retreats
idea (which may need to be reframed into something more useful or
practical), I just want to keep stretching, keep learning how to go
beyond my comfort zone, and I've learned, thanks to all of you and
especially to you, Doc, to keep doing that.

(Also, Camp Shakespeare folks? Cool!)

Mike

Winedale brothers and sisters,

Jose Angel Hernández is ready!  Starting early is preferred, since, as many 
know, I am slow of study.

Love to all
Jose

[Winedale-l] The best news is . .. ..

[James Ayres]

Only a few of you will remember that famous line spoken by Alice Gordon in 1973 
at the end of The Tempest for which she won the Boatswain Award for good news.  
Major moment.  You had to be there.  

Well, the best news now is that the kids in Camp Shakespeare explored new 
worlds and met delightful inhabitants in Navarre (LLL), Sicilia and Bohemia 
(WT) and celebrated their discoveries for wonderful audiences.  We had another 
great summer.  Thanks to those of you who contributed to their success through 
gift and audience.  We are growing another generation of Shakespeareans, many 
of them sons and daughters of you guys.

We are also approaching the 50th—count ‘em f i f t y— anniversary of 
Shakespeare at Winedale in 2020. So I’d like to hear some suggestions about how 
to celebrate THIS
reunion.  A week in the country again? Two plays again? Or one?  Yes, it is 
early, but this one is big and may be my last, alas. So please give it some 
thought.  I guess that we would once again need a “reunion committee”?  What do 
you think?  I’m eager to get a’going.  

With a hay and a ho and a hey nonny,

Doc
