My first Shakespeare memory is playing Queen Gertrude in a 6th grade production of Hamlet.  That gave me a taste for  Shakespeare.  Then in the early the 70's my tiny, rural high school actually got the funds to take a group of students to the OSF in Ashland.  I have been hooked ever since.  

I have seen many versions of the plays, live and on film, and the whole package of Ashland is right up there with the very best.   The plays, the theater, the town... I admit to bias but I love it!
