As we sit looking out at the piles of snow and ice I wonder whether we would get excited at the prospect of performing outdoor Shakespeare in these conditions. Come to think of it, it seems that an occasional July evening on the lawns at Hatherop Castle has seen similar temperatures. Anyway I hope you are all remaining warm and well fed during this exceptional period.
Since the November auditions Jonathan Vickers has cast Cymbeline and done much work on the script and other associated activities.
It was wonderful to see such a good turn-out, so thank you all for your interest and commitment to our 20th Anniversary production. The first cast/crew get-together will be at QVI on 4th March.
On 13th February there will be a Social Gathering (nibbles and drinks) of all Arcadian members at my home near Southrop and Pamela Kingsford will be circulating full details in the coming days. I hope you can make it - and if you have not yet responded to requests for payment of 2010 member fees please do so now.
This will probably be the last ‘Chat’ to be read on the old website. Plans are well advanced with the design and structuring of our new site.
Watch this space! I wish all members and friends of the Cotswold Arcadians a Happy and Healthy New Year.
