Good evening! The last two days have been the final rehearsal days for Troilus and Cressida and The Comedy of Errors, as well as brush-ups on music, more English history, two more rounds of Macbeth and a Friday Night Lights On with its director, José Zayas, TWO instagram takeovers (one from Willow and one from Gal – check them out at @amshakeseducation), and various free times occupied with the farmers’ market and feverish line-running – all under a global internet outage!

As our fearless Lia-der says, “While we’re glad to be able to offer the stream, the experience is always better live (and I can never 100% guarantee the technology won’t fail), so come in-person if you can!”

After the show, families are welcome to join us at the Hunt Dining Hall afterwards for our “Lunch in the Life” celebration banquet!
