Executive director of OSF retiring
DailyTidings.com: Paul Nicholson of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival will leave the regional theater powerhouse after 17 years as its executive director in December 2012, the OSF announced Friday."You hit a point in your life when you say it's time," Nicholson said in an interview before the announcement. "For me it happened in the last year. I didn't want to someday retire and have people say, 'Thank God he's gone.'" The OSF board has hired Stamford, Conn.-based Management Consultants for the Arts to begin the search for a new executive director.

I wonder what this will mean for OSF's scheduleing for shows losing an executive director is a big deal esspecially for an organisation the size of OSF. It will be interesting to see what things stay similar in their programing and in their overall astetic. OSF is known for being traditional while still inovating and expanding. OSF is also quite a powerhouse on the west coast where there are fewer big theaters or theater festivals. I'm excited to see what this change will bring.
