Their comments to me and to our cast and production crew have been glowing, and truly humbling for us. <BR/><BR/>I certainly hope that this production will prompt a re-examination of Thoreau's writings, which are more timely now than ever, especially his points about simplifying life. Thoreau couldn't have foreseen our modern technology or how it would become so pervasive in our lives, but his message about "less is more" - and about seeking the true worth in a person's soul, rather than in their pocketbook or position in the community - are absolutely timeless.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again Bruce, and I look forward to late October when I personally can enjoy the simple joy of seeing productions again at Willow Lawn and Hanover Tavern to visit MY good friends, yourself included.Frank Creasyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15302762603707230845noreply@blogger.com
