Sorry I didn't mention the American Ballet Theatre earlier, but I just got home earlier this week from the artistic and liberal community of Ashland, Oregon. I was really interested in hoping to see the Oregon Shakespeare Festival that's going on and the Oregon Cabaret Theatre, but I got such a headache, my friend got me a flight home immediately after the birthday party I went to.

It seems as if Ashland, Oregon is home to a lot of different types of performing arts here and even have a Black Swan theatre. I wonder if they practice Swan Lake there.

The Oregon Shakespeare Festival is put on by Bill Rauch, Artistic Director. FYI, the free Green Show (a Variety Show) is only free in the summertime. Their vision for the namesake playwright seems as if it is very expansive. I'm not sure how Shakespeare is really tied to this Festival because I didn't see any similarities to his birthplace in the United Kingdom (England).

Ticket sales online for this festival is: www.osfashland.org
Phone: 800-219-8161, 541-482-4331, 541-482-2111
Group Sales phone number is only available Mon-Fri.
They even make fun of Windsor and have a Tudor Guild Gift Shop. If you would rather shop, their number is: 541-482-0940 or www.tudorguild.org
