Tom Hunter says new Shakespeare Oxford Newsletter arrived


Dear Oberon,

There in my mailbox today was our own Linda Theil's second SOS Newsletter. What a treat!  Impressive indeed. Thick, full pages crammed full with great information and analysis about the authorship issue. Linda is quickly establishing a reputation of quality as the newsletter's new editor

It is worth the annual membership fee to receive this wonderful publication. If you are not yet a member of the Shakespeare Oxford Society, please consider joining now. The newsletter will be yours, and you will be part of an organization with a proud history of research and discovery which will some day lead us to world wide recognition of the true author. 

Tom
Your Chairman

Her son didn’t attend the performance Tuesday because of another commitment, she said.  “I think the theater company should have left out any references that were rated R,” Crowley said. “I would say that I’ve read Shakespeare, and what I was told from the students, I’ve never read anything that bad.”  She said she objected to scenes that involved pelvic thrusting and breast touching and to a line in which Mercutio makes suggestive comments to Romeo after looking up the skirt of a female.
