Subject:        Where is Shakespeare?
 
Okay.  Imagine a geographical grid something like this:
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|                                Toronto                                  |
|                                                                         |
|  Cleveland    Erie            Buffalo                                   |
|                                                                         |
|               x                                                         |
|                                                                         |
|               Pittsburgh                                                |
|                                                                         |
|                                                                         |
|                                                             Washington  |

The "x" is me, a sojourner in Sharon, Pennsylvania, just where Interstate 80
crosses the Pennsylvania/Ohio border.  I'm looking for Shakespeare in per-
formance for a small class of 1st-year university students, in busing range,
some time between next week and the end of April.  I know the Shakespeare
Theatre at the Lansberg is doing Comedy of Errors until early March, but
they follow this with Brecht's Mother Courage, which is a fine play, but not
on my syllabus.  Can anybody provide some information?  We can get to
Pittsburgh or Cleveland in 1-1.5 hours, to Washington in 6, to Toronto in
5.  We'd go to Stratford Ontario, but their early season begins just when
our semester is over.  New York is 8 hours away.  Philadelphia 8.5-9 hours.
That's probably too far.  But I'd love to hear from you if you have sugges-
tions.
