Lovely visit to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in

Lovely visit to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland: hanging with Will, the Allen Elizabethan Theatre (dressed and lit for Jane Eyre), sitting by the pond, the Thomas Theatre, Lithia Creek, hungry koi, and another moment in the Allen.
Four nights, five plays: Macbeth, Coriolanus, Jane Eyre, Much Ado About Nothing, and Born with Teeth.

Covid again! We both have tested positive, along with six other members of our dance class. Canceled our trip to Ashland and hunkering down. Symptoms pretty mild so far, but this thing ain’t over.

Live jazz tonight at the wonderful Yoshi’s club in Oakland. A great venue. We saw 2-time Grammy winner Mads Tolling playing with his quartet. Outstanding music. And Yoshi’s unique combination of sushi and jazz is always hard to beat!

We had a great storytelling show this week at Tell ItOn Tuesday at The Marsh in Berkeley! There had been a fire in the building above the theater earlier in the day, and water was still dripping down into the theater by showtime.
So the staff of The Marsh decided to move our show into the cabaret (bar) next to the theater and quickly rearranged chairs to accommodate our SELLOUT crowd.
I told "Ecstasy at the Altar," a story of our family trip to France.
It was a great night of stories and an excellent, enthusiastic, responsive, audience! Awesome crowd! Thanks to my fellow tellers Brian Leonard and Natacha Ruck, and to our wonderful hosts Bridget Frederick and Rebecca Fisher, who have been putting on shows at Tell ItOn Tuesday for 19 years now! Unfortunately, I don't have photos of them to post here.
Thanks to everyone who came out to support us! Big fun! I'll be posting video of my part of the show a little later this week, for those who are interested.
