The next round of commissions for the American History cycle was announced at a press conference in the lobby of the Bowmer Theatre, details of which can be found here. More details will be posted later tonight.

Apparently, during the June 11th performance of Servant of Two Masters at OSF, Eileen DeSandre fell so ill with food poisoning during the production that she was unable to go back on after intermission. Other shows might pull in an emergency understudy but, with improvisation already a key part of the show, the rest of the cast decided to work it out as they went along. According to the accounts I heard, the audience was none the wiser. Wow.
