This site will be updated regularly, so please check back often. As things develop this will be a haven for all things Shepard: current productions, reviews, texts, and other resources of interest to both the casual playgoer and the scholar. Hopefully it will be fun, too. Any ideas you have regarding this page, its contents, and possible links are appreciated. Please drop me a note with your ideas, comments, announcements, etc.
