From email this morning: 

Dear David,

We are excited to tell you that your play Hancock Street has been selected to be part of our 2026 one act play series. The performance takes place at the Ruth Gordon Amphitheater. All performances produced by Friends of Ruth Gordon Amphitheater and Thalia Theater Troupe at the Ruth Gordon Amphitheater are free to the public.

As part of the inclusion, we are offering you $25.00 for the rights to perform the play and video it as we do all performances at the Amphitheater.

Please let us know your acceptance. When the 2026 schedule is set, we will notify you of the date and time. We hope you will be able to attend the performance. We expect the director will want to consult with you if they have any questions.

Thank you and congratulations!

Ann Danby

Exhausting, joyful all day work on The Asheville Cantos. My voice is the great voice. Small poems are like gems that never quite find their place. There must be the necklace, the diadem.
