      @@shakespeareontoast I'm an acting teacher in Los Angeles. (www.stuartrogersstudios.com) I am teaching a class (via zoom) which is includes verse, rhetoric, an introduction to OP and coupling it with a slightly more Russian sensibility. I have so enjoyed your videos (and your Father's book) they have been a wonderful influence. I am going to go onto amazon and start reading some your writings. Thanks for doing what you do.
