For this Friday’s Entertainer, I’m writing about the 2010 season at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival — and offering short assessments of the three plays I was able to catch there recently. (The family and I saw “Hamlet,” “Pride and Prejudice” and “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.”)

We were unable to get tickets to “Ruined,” which I wanted to see, and “Well,” which I also wanted to see — but not as much as I wanted to see “Ruined.”

The

remaining six plays in the season start later this year. (The musical “She Loves Me” is scheduled to start on April 21; the remaining plays debut in June and July.)

If you got a chance to see “Ruined” or “Well,” I’d be interested in your takes on those shows. Similarly, we could compare notes on “Hamlet,” “Cat” and “Pride and Prejudice.”
