SUMMER FIELD TRIP -Who wants to go see Shakespeare??????????

On July 25th, I am organizing a trip to Jackson, MI to the Michigan Shakespeare festival to see 'All's Well That Ends Well'. We will meet at the Dairy Queen in Howell at 5:30 and leave around 5:45. The plays starts at 7:30 and there is a talk back with the actors afterwards. The tickets are $27 for adults - $15 for students. PLUS you will need to chip in for gas. There are limited spaces in the car and this is a first come, first served basis. If you are interested in going, please email me at maloa@howellschools.com to reserve your spot.

Never heard of it? Only used the title as a cliched saying? What's it about? According to their website.....

"Who cannot be crushed with a plot?" Act IV Scene III
Is Helena devious and obsessive in her love for Bertram, or honest and righteous? Is Bertram an irredeemable and disdainful rogue, or a young man in need of life experience before wedlock? This romance comedy, with its captivating themes of male versus female, society's view of merit and rank, and the value of honor and integrity, keenly exposes each audacious plot after plot, until all ends well -- or does it?
