Extended cut: Incoming OSF artistic director aims to build bridges, strengthen bonds

Ashland News - Independent, Nonprofit, Community News: William Shakespeare asked, “What’s in a name?” For incoming Oregon Shakespeare Festival Artistic Director Tim Bond, apparently a lot. “Everywhere I’ve been, I’ve built bridges and tried to find that interconnectivity between the theater and the community wherever it is, but also just between people,” Bond said in a Zoom interview with Ashland.news on July 6. “It’s built into my name — Bond,” he added warmly.
