      Oh, I am so happy that you made it!! When I gave, there were so few backers and so little money that I thought you wouldn't. This is just fabulous -- wish I could make it up to Ashland to see everyone

      This is so WONDERFUL and EXCITING!!!! I was the one who heard the Peter Friedrich's radio interview on Bob Scheer’s Truthdigg radio and posted about it on the OSF Facebook page.

      This makes me so happy. If for any reason you need any support, add me to the email list. I'll be there for you.

      I knew you'd make it -- even though, back when I sent my pledge, the total was only about $2,700. I think yesterday's Oregon Shakes Fest email blast to its subscribers provided the big boost you needed. What a grand adventure the Shakespeare Iraq Theatre Company is about to embark on! Hope to see you when you touch down in San Francisco in July.

      This is AWESOME! I am soooooo happy for you! Now you have to watch that movie "Coming to America" ;-) (It's hardly a Shakespearean classic but will surely make you smile.)
