Hi, This weekend will be warm with highs in the lower to mid 80s. Next week we will be in the upper 80s all week
long. It's hot enough....
remember pets, children, and seniors. Their inner temperature gauges and cooling systems don't always work the same. In fact, it is common for a senior to feel comfortable in extreme temperatures, because they are usually cold. And another thing -- check the ground temp. If it's too hot to your touch, it's too hot for your pet -- And bring (and drink) extra water. The body uses a lot keeping our
systems working correctly. Stay cool and take care of your self Shakespeare THIS Weekend At Rush Park - Picnic and then enjoy the tragedy that is Hamlet on Saturday

Hamlet @ Rush Park Saturday 7/15 |
|
|
Here's a small step into the world of William Shakespeare... To be or not to be..... is about all many people know about Shakespeare (and
Hamlet).
We'll try to fill in more details - consider it a really novice version or "director's cut" extra -- like details about his Globe theater, and how it continues to
influence theater today.
Feel free to start talking in the comments below -- many of ya know more than we do (the angst and religious symbolisms, the use of iambic pentameter to drive the
action.....huh?) - and yes, we'll tie the characters together with the times, with you.

The Twelfth Night - Shakespeare at Rush Park Sunday 7/16 |
|
|
This is so
fun. Shakespeare is the master of complicated relationships, twists and turns. Here is the gist of this romantic comedy (courtesy of Folger Shakespeare Library on Capitol Hill): Named for the twelfth night after Christmas, the
end of the Christmas season, Twelfth Night plays with love and power. The Countess Olivia, a woman with her own household, attracts Duke (or Count) Orsino. Two other would-be suitors are her pretentious steward, Malvolio, and Sir Andrew Aguecheek. Onto this scene arrive the twins Viola and
Sebastian; caught in a shipwreck, each thinks the other has drowned. Viola disguises herself as a male page and enters Orsino’s service. Orsino sends her as his envoy to Olivia—only to have Olivia fall in love with the messenger. The play complicates, then wonderfully untangles, these relationships. If you are a person who is already hooked, google
the Folger Shakespeare Library & Twelfth Night, where they expand the synopsis, and deep-dive the entire play.
