Though not a part of my original plan, I stumbled across a performance in late June of Henry IV Part I. As I’ve mentioned before (and acknowledged in my original proposal) it’s the History plays that are giving me the most grief (or challenge). At present count, I have all but two of the the Comedies, Tragedies and “Romances” spoken for…that is, somebody is performing those plays. (Don’t get me started with Midsummer Night’s Dream…I know it’s a fun play and people like it, but does every company have to perform the dang thing? I’ve got a project to do here people!)

So, I am considering a New England trip possibly in late June.

And, as I’ve mentioned before, I’ll start to sketch in plays and dates in a few weeks and make that information available here. Also, if you know of any production of a Shakespeare play in your community, please let me know (even if it’s just Midsummer Night’s Dream)…I’d like to know.
