Are we all met?

One of my favorite parts of the Grassroots Shakespeare experience is the first cast meeting.  We had ours last night on the top floor of a Starbucks in Knightsbridge, and it was divine.

The enthusiasm, the goodwill, the unbridled optimism... It's just such a refreshing experience.  What kind of gift is this, to get together with a fun group of like-minded people, and start to create a totally collaborative work of art.

I can't wait to get started on the rehearsal process.
