Comedy of Errors in Winona with Will

Shakespeare in Winona

Summer is coming and with it Will also come the annual trip to the Great Rivers Shakespeare Festival.  This year we will be delighted by Comedy of Errors at the 3:00 p. m. matinee on July 14, 2010.  The play will again feature the Great Rivers Company of Equity actors drawn from across the nation, including one whose career started in Northfield and St Olaf and another who was featured on the Carleton stage.  We will follow the format used last summer with departure at 11:00 a. m., picnic lunch along the way, Comedy of Errors, followed by dinner with selected actors from the cast and surprises for the trip back, arriving about 9:00 p. m.  The trip is jointly sponsored by the Cannon Valley Elder Collegium and the Senior Center.  Your hosts will again be Char and Bill!

Those now attending the course by Jim Holden, a retired Northfield High School and St. Olaf teacher of English and Writing, will be exposed to the works of three well-known Minnesota writers:  Paul Gruchow, Jon Hassler, and Northfield’s own Siri Hustvedt.  An added attraction in this course was the guest appearance of Ms. Hustvedt, (shown here in a recent web video)  during class last week.       Ed
