Yankee Homecoming Press Release
Dexter Comes
Home Again on Stage and Page For what is more --- this time marks a number of historical and generational milestones, including the 200th anniversary of his Lordship's own passing. Entertaining and enlightening "Amousement" will be in dexterous hands as Lord Tim partakes in various happenings from the festival's beginning to end. In the midst of it all, Dexter will serve as ambassador-at-large, engaging all generations in happenstance encounters. Lord Timothy
Wants You to Rewrite His Epitaph! In light of that, the Yankee Homecoming keepsake program book committee seeks inspiration from aspiring writers of all ages, and is soliciting bits of wit and wisdom to use in a composite contemporary obituary (to counter the dour, spiteful entry published by the Newburyport Herald upon Dexter's demise). Above and beyond, since Dexter has expressed disappointment at the prosaic remarks which mark his gravestone, he looks forward to a review of more epic epigraphs drafted by present-day poet laureates. Please e-mail all program book submissions to comity@comcast.net. Selected
entries will be published in the program book and all appropriate contributions
will be applied to an "E-ternal" presentation at his Lordship's
virtual seat. (As well, a medley may be recited at a gravesite "serryMonyAll"
held on Olde Fashioned Sunday.) While the deadline for any contributions
considered for the program book is Friday, April 7 --- the Knowing Ones
forever welcome your belated thoughts and afterthoughts. Come to know
