We've reached our £5,000 target to have a seat named after David in the new Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-Upon-Avon (!) and if that's not exciting enough David has also sent you all a lovely message...
Dear lovely, lovely people. Thank you so much for all the amazing messages you sent for my birthday. I never fail to be gobsmacked and humbled by all your loveliness. I feel very honoured to have so many kind and generous people thinking of me. It is so appreciated. And now I hear from the Royal Shakespeare Company that you wonderful, wonderful people have raised over £5,000 which will sponsor one of the top level seats in the new Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-On-Avon when it opens later this year. A place very dear to my heart as you all know. Both the RSC and myself thank you from the very depths of our Shakespearean souls. I could kiss you all.
I know I've been a bit quiet of late, but I'm working hard on a load of new projects so I'll be boring you all senseless with plenty of new things soon. Thank you for being part of such a great website and thank you to Sarah for all her hard work keeping it going.
You are all MARVELLOUS!
love dt xx
Lauren from the RSC has also emailed her thanks to all of you who were kind enough to donate to the appeal. Your £5,000 has ensured that one of the best seats in the house will have David's name on it. Many thanks from us all.
