Just out of curiosity...

I was making a list of the Hold Thy Peace shows that I know have been or will be put on to get an idea of the club's history. Here is what I know:

As You Like It - Fall '03
Merchant of Venice - Spring '04
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead - Fall '04
Twelfth Night - Fall '05
Macbeth - Spring '06
The Tempest - Fall '06
Dr. Faustus - Spring '07
Hamlet - Fall '07
A Comedy of Errors - Spring '08
King Lear - Fall '08
A Midsummer Night's Dream - Spring '09
Romeo and Juliet - Fall '09
To Think of Nothing - Spring '10
Julius Caesar - Spring '10
A Winter's Tale - Fall '10

Could any Hold Thy Peacers who came before me (like zapf or flyingstalins, for example?) maybe fill me in? What came before my list, and when? How far back exactly does the club go?

I think we go back to 2001, but I can't remember where I got that from.

On a related note: SQUEEEEEEE WINTER'S TALE!

As you like it was the Fall semester of 2003 then spring was Merchant then R&G then we skipped a semester. I really should know what happened before, but I can ask Debbie (who co-founded the group). I know they did a lot of non-play stuff as well... but I'll ask. Debbie and Amy and a few others founded the group and intentionally didn't want to be part of BTC because the plays were practically a secondary thing to a lot of valentines day sonnet stuff and other events, which is exciting to see coming back because it ha died down by the time I got involved. I could also get you Debbie's contact info because she' be able to say it better (and is really super-cool)

Thank you! I appreciated the information. And sure, it would be great to talk to Debbie and hear a little bit more HTP backstory. :-)
