Shakespeare's Will, November 8 - December 1 [image: Shakespeare's Will, November 8 - December 1] <https://t.e2ma.net/click/l08ajb/tyo021/92u0zh> Anne's story is one of passion and ferocity. Hear it in every shade November 8th - December 1st. Get tickets <https://t.e2ma.net/click/l08ajb/tyo021/pvv0zh> Get a double whammy of Shakespearean backstory and more tour de force performances, this weekend at The Tull Family Theater <https://t.e2ma.net/click/l08ajb/tyo021/5nw0zh> Special screening of *All is True, *starring Judi Dench and Kenneth Branagh *this Sunday, October 20th at 11:30AM. Get tickets here <https://t.e2ma.net/click/l08ajb/tyo021/lgx0zh> *The year is 1613, Shakespeare is acknowledged as the greatest writer of the age. But disaster strikes when his renowned Globe Theatre burns to the ground, and devastated, Shakspeare returns to Stratford, where he must face a troubled past and a neglected family. Haunted by the death of his only son Hamnet, he struggles to mend the broken relationships with his wife and daughters. In so doing, he is ruthlessly forced to examine his own failings as husband and father. His very personal search for the truth uncovers secrets and lies within a family at war. Movie tickets <https://t.e2ma.net/click/l08ajb/tyo021/18x0zh> <https://t.e2ma.net/click/l08ajb/tyo021/h1y0zh> *Shakespeare's Will*By Vern Thiessen Directed by Melanie Dreyer November 8 - December 1 West Homestead United Methodist Church <https://t.e2ma.net/click/l08ajb/tyo021/xtz0zh> William Shakespeare remained married until his death to Anne Hathaway, about whom the world knows little and wonders much. This contemporary play portrays a full-throated Anne in every emotional color imaginable, at the center of her own story instead of relegated to a footnote in Will’s; a robust exploration of feminist themes resonant even in the #MeToo present. *Shakespeare’s Will* offers a tour de force for actress *Sheila McKenna*, cherished staple of Pittsburgh theatre, and is scored live by violinist *Dawn Posey*. The performance inhabits West Homestead United Methodist Church, a Pittsburgh treasure hiding in plain sight, unveiling the poetic space of her memory enhanced by the mastery of designers *Stephanie Mayer-Staley, Joe Seamans, C. Todd Brown, Steve Shapiro, *and* Bonnie Siefers.* Learn more <https://t.e2ma.net/click/l08ajb/tyo021/dm00zh> [image: Twitter] <https://t.e2ma.net/click/l08ajb/tyo021/te10zh> [image: Facebook] <https://t.e2ma.net/click/l08ajb/tyo021/9610zh> [image: Instagram] <https://t.e2ma.net/click/l08ajb/tyo021/pz20zh> www.QuantumTheatre.com/will | 412-362-1713 *Share this email:* [image: Email] <https://t.e2ma.net/share/outbound/e/l08ajb/tyo021> [image: Twitter] <https://t.e2ma.net/share/outbound/t/l08ajb/tyo021> [image: Facebook] <https://t.e2ma.net/share/outbound/f/l08ajb/tyo021> [image: LinkedIn] <https://t.e2ma.net/share/outbound/l/l08ajb/tyo021> *Manage* <https://app.e2ma.net/app2/audience/signup/1832316/1786067/1680848083/?s=to-…> your preferences | *Opt out* <https://t.e2ma.net/optout/l08ajb/tyo021?s=159nIOTpV-GhsDRPDBHlXNt-3i7RNFby6…> using *TrueRemove®* Got this as a forward? *Sign up* <https://app.e2ma.net/app2/audience/signup/1832316/1786067.75627731/> to receive our future emails.

Highland Park Nanny Share
by Jessie Northrup 16 Oct '19

16 Oct '19

Hello neighbors, We’re hoping to find a nanny share with another Highland Park family, starting in January. Our daughter will be 6 months old then, and it would be great to find a little one of a similar age. If you know of any leads on nannies or families that might be interested, please get in touch! Best, Jessie Sent from my iPhone

Fwd: Open House for The Ellis School
by Emily Nicholson 15 Oct '19

15 Oct '19

If anyone would like a different perspective on the Ellis School from what you would get at an Open House (particularly anyone considering sending their daughter to Ellis Pre-K), I urge you to contact me. It’s true that many girls have a wonderful experience there, but many do not. When we were exploring schools for our daughter, we wanted to hear both positive and negative anecdotes about the programs under consideration, and in fact we posted to this list multiple times to gather such information. It’s the only way to make an informed decision and hopefully avoid a very expensive mistake. Thus, I would be happy to pay it forward and help somebody else make the right decision for their daughter. Ellis can be a great place for the right type of girl. But the truth is that the Lower School has serious administration/management issues, and there has been some appalling treatment of children (and their families) who don’t fit the Ellis mold. If your daughter already has the social and emotional skills of a child 2-3 years her senior, then yes, Ellis may be “supportive,” “challenging“ and “accepting of her exactly how she is”. If she does not, that description will be utterly laughable. In the words of a child development specialist, Ellis is a “developmentally inappropriate” place. You are paying for a fancy name and a bunch of unnecessary bells and whistles but you are most certainly NOT paying for a nurturing and supportive environment. This is important for prospective families to know. I wish I had.

Perhaps she will be starting elementary, middle or high school. I wanted to pass along that The Ellis School will be holding an open house on October 22. Ellis provides an educational environment that is supportive, challenging and accepting of girls exactly as they are. It allows girls and young women to be proud of their curiosity and intellectual fervor, and to enter the world as bold and authentic women. I'm happy to chat with you about Ellis as both a parent and an alumna. > > Kind regards, > > Dora P.
