[Grovenet] Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)

[Ken Centers]

Tomorrow and Saturday are the only performances at this time. There is talk 
(and only talk at this point) that the boys may perform it as a fund raiser 
for Theatre in the Grove sometime next year. If so, I will try to post it 
on Grovenet well in advance.

Thanks,
Ken
