We will be there to celebrate the wee lass's birthday on opening day!  I love Memorial Day at the faire, but I'm guessing attendance was low on that day.

Oh - you will definitely see me there next season. Last season I only could attend one day because of my surgery. This next season I'm going to try very hard to make up for that - especially since I had a lovely offer from a friend to let her know when I want to attend and we can stay with her for the weekend (and I told her I most definitely take her up on that offer!)

Do you know yet if there are any openings on cast - specifically on the Court?

Not to mention the high-numbered Circle of Hell that I-95 becomes on Memorial Day evening.

Yes low attendance was definitely a factor in deciding to not be open on Memorial Day.

I am quite sure we will be having openings available in court!  Should know in a few weeks when auditions are and once they are set, I'll post them out here.  You would CERTAINLY be a welcome addition!  However I'm looking for more men especially to join court!  WE NEED MEN!  Pass it on!   ;D

dangnubbit, I was really looking forward to spending three hours staring at the entrance gate to Dahlgren waiting for the traffic on the Nice Bridge to move a couple of feet. Again.

Yes Milady - I think you may know her indeed!  ;)

In fact I've had more than one lovely friend make such an offer and I think you are acquainted with them others as well  :)

Also - did you get my email about your wine?

Thank thee Milord - your kind words are much appreciated and I shall look into the possibility as soon as I know what my work situation will be (I'm currently looking to make a change in that arena). How'er if auditions are such that they occur before the work venue change - the new job - when it becomes a reality - will just have to deal with it!

Mayhap I can talk Prince Oswyn into participating provided the work situation will bend to his will???

I shall speak with him  :)

Well you will see it again on Dress Rehearsal but without the makeup!  Marion already said it was approved for that!  LOL
