Nancy! You’ve outdone yourself! I always have to go back over your linkfest multiple times to dip into the ones that sound great. How do you do it?

Yes, springtime in Ashland is divine—jealous. Always wanted to see A Raisin in the Sun on stage. Now I have to start at the top and check everything out…

Thanks, Susan!

I was very glad that I decided it would be interesting to take a backstage tour at the OSF. Our group’s guide was funny and down-to-earth. The next night I watched his performance as Richard III. (It was the first time I understood that the line is not, “Now is the winter of our discontent.”)

Those OSF extras are worth every penny.

Really a great list, Nancy. I seldom miss living in a big city when I’m surrounded by so much natural beauty, but that made me wistful.

This is such an incredible and interesting menu of culture. You also made me realize that as we’re in Oregon we probably should be getting tickets to the Ashland Shakespeare festival. Thank you! I can tell this is a labor of love, I appreciate it! I need something to watch this weekend besides MSNow and now I have options.

Thank you, Tracey! Yes, do go to OSF; you will not regret it.

I forgot all about it, I thought our culture options here were just what they have playing at the Bend amphitheater. It’s nice to have some concert options here but it’s pretty limited. Thanks for the reminder. And thanks for all you do in putting this post together!
