Cymbeline goes up on Monday and runs Monday nights through April. Whoo!

I'm also associate producing The Trajedy of John, and then comes Richard II! Taming of the Shrew may happen before that, depending on casting . . .

it's great to hear from you. Ava is Ten! It seems like yesterday you were pushing her around in a stroller. I hope all is well with you, Eric and the kids.

Yes, of course it counts! And actually, upon (re?)reading the card, I recall that my first thought was "How cute, and how impractical a card. You can't even write on it!"

Thanks for the belated birthday wishes, big sis'.

Talk about a "no show" that is me. Shit Ali, I miss you and yours. I may be returning home soon, but I am afraid it will be too short. I have made the not so easy decision to expatriate myself and stay here in Europe/England indefinitely.

What would it take to bring you here?

Much love,
~vale

Happy 5th of July, big sis!

And I think you're my hero more often than you think you are.

Stay dry (or play in the rain)!
