They did it!

A quick update on the Shakespeare Santa Cruz situation -- they did it.

Thanks to donations from theatre fans across the country, Shakespeare Santa Cruz was able to raise $416,417 in a little over a week. We're hugely relieved for our compatriots over the hill, and thrilled to live in a region where the arts are supported so strongly.

So, now that all the hubbub is over, and a little of the strain is off, it might be a good time to mention that...ahem...if you'd still like to get a write-off before tax season (by making a tax-deductable donation by the year's end), well, I can think of a few other local nonprofits that would welcome the help.
