Pegg the wonder pup. He loves his dog bed next to the radiator. What a peaceful and wonderful boy.

THE ARTS SAVE LIVES!!!!
Literally and figuratively!! They inspire and get those juices flowing!!! I always tell my students that studying theatre is not such the craft. It is also teaching you different ideas and creative thinking, collaboration, empathy, etc…. Thank you Mr. Stoppard.
Great culture can save lives. Literally.

Trickle-down economics was always a sham.

Nothing has ever trickled down.

RIP Mr. Stoppard.
