You gotta love “revered rep company returns in full force.”
An incredible collection of theatre folks are making this happen @stratfest and I’m awfully proud to be a part of it.

The man himself invites you to come to #sfSpamalot @stratfest! Opening tonight - come see us!
Today Spamalot opens in Stratford Ontario at The Shakespeare Festival till October. As I wish I had said, the big advantage I have over Shakespeare is I can still turn up for the Curtain Call…

What a miracle @stratfest is:
Today we started a new play, and gave the 1st preview of another. Tomorrow we have the 1st of 5 openings on consecutive nights. 3 more shows are in previews. Another 2 start rehearsal next week.
So many incredible people. Happy opening week!
