The Countess Merry-Go-Round never stops!
Sometimes my social calendar amazes even me! It has been a whirlwind these past few days and I need to sit down here at my Blog and sort it out.
After seeing "Waiting for Godot" at the Berkshire Theatre Festival (Make sure you get your tickets!!!!), Patrice and Sunshine joined me at Rumpy's Tavern for a cocktail....or two!
Leah, Patrice, and Sunshine
Rafi, who was the Stage Manager for Pageant Play earlier in the BTF season, joined us....
The Countess and Prince Troy ended up dancing like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers....
The Countess met a really fun couple visiting the area from Washington DC, Michael and Bobbi....
We were able to get them a connections for tickets to 'Godot' because Patrice and Sunshine were right there and they work in the Box Office!! Everyone was happy!
Adam & Troy, Sistahs Forever!!
The next night was the Benefactors Circle Dinner at Berkshire Theatre Festival and we were in for a treat! Sir Thomas More and King Henry VIII (Eric Hill and Gareth Saxe from the cast of "A Man for all Seasons") came in to knight Smitty Pignatelli, the local Representative for Berkshire County.
And I got my picture taken with the actors IN COSTUME which is something that rarely happens. The Countess was excited!
Introducing Sir Alexander, First Knight of the Hills
Beautiful Stephanie was there for her final function. Stephanie is on her way to New York City! Her Going Away party was later that night.
It was a fun evening and a chance to see some new friends and meet more.
Then it was off to Shakespeare & Co. see "Othello" once more. I posted about my first impression of this play here. That was a preview performance and I wanted to see it again after the opening. Wonderful, wonderful! Well worth a second visit!
After seeing Othello, The Countess went to Stephanie's Going Away Party! Good thing the Benefactors Dinner started at 5:30 because then it was 8 pm for Othello and then off to the party at 11 pm! I had a blast at Stephanie's party and took quite a few photos but I think I will save that story for tomorrow.
