This summer's production will be Henry V, rather than their originally scheduled Macbeth (which I'm pleased about; I've seen a bunch of Macbeths recently, and a less-performed play is good.) The powers-that-decide-such-things thought that this would be more topical, considering what's going on in the world these days.
Apparently it's being set in England in the 1930s. And Anthony Rapp has the title role.
It's running from July 19 through August 4. Last year I 'hosted' a Thursday (vegetarian/vegan) potluck on the Common, and people seemed to enjoy it... I think I'll do it again this year, with everyone here who wants to join also invited, of course.
