Cracking a Fusty Nut?

The Bomb-itty of Errors opened Sat night in HVSF’s tent at Boscobel. A huge success. Kudos to Chris Edwards, Mike Borrelli, Wayne Carr, Patrick Halley and Christian Jacobs, Melissa Daghini, and many others who contributed to this skillful, hilarious and very generous production.

Next coming down the pike is Taming of the Shrew directed by Kurt Rhoads. I saw the first preview Friday, and it was really a hoot. They’re definitely on track and I expect they will be Sliding into Home Plate this coming Saturday night.

Meanwhile, Troilus and Cressida (my project) had its second preview performance this evening. I’m keeping my ear to the rail. Audiences have been enthusiastic and supportive, and curtain response tells me that they’re really staying with us.  This is good to know, since we’ve been working in a vacuum for several weeks.  

I feel like we’ve cracked the fusty nut and found that there’s plenty of kernel inside.
