‘Destination Shakespeare’ for the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, Ashland
O, Ashland lion, sing tonight, From your mane spills star-struck light; Your moonbeams of festivity Caress the stage seductively; We roar applause, which you ignite.
Your madrigals are burnished bright, Your hip-hop pulse – a lover’s bite, We dance from sea to shining sea: Go westward-ho!
O, Ashland lion, strike the height; Your blazing tail, a chequered kite, Catches winds of history, Dives into diversity; When seeking brave new worlds to write: Go westward-ho!
