Most Stratford residents are tired of hearing these pipe dreams of the theatre. We have realized the facts: Stratford local "government" and political wannabes can't even keep our parks and beaches in tact,why should we undertake this forseeable headache? Stratford and Shakespeare- The connection has long been broken. Do something for the taxpayers not for your egos!!

Take the white beast down. It's time to let go.Better to build a cheap out door amphitheater for concerts instead.Not necessarily on that site.

We must be careful what we wish for. If theater can still draw crowds (a big if today) then we have the dilemma of limited parking. Folks don't ride trains to "catch a show" any more. Too often they just pop in a DVD.

I'd love to see the Shakespeare Theater working again. I'm just not terribly optimistic that it will.

Bill Hanney is a hack and brings nothing but baggage with him.
