With the recent departure of Emma Grace to pursue her career, and Bostwick and Sebille’s plans to pursue expanding the population base by starting a family, the decision has been reached to retire Willie’s Wenches from active performances effective June 1st, 2010. Due to the group disbanding, Clarissa and Lolita have decided to open a new chapter in their performance careers with a new group called The Damsels of Dorkington. As each of us moves on to new projects, we would like to thank everyone who has given us such wonderful support over the last two and a half years. When we formed the group in 2007, we simply wanted to create something fun showcasing comedy, music, and (of course) our namesake, Willie. When we launched the group in January 2008, we had no idea how well we’d be received. We’ve been honored and delighted at the response. From our smallest venues to our national shows, we’ve met so many amazing people who have been nothing short of terrific! Most of us have individual Facebook pages, etc. btw, so please stay in touch! As we shut down the reactor in the Wench Cave and throw the tarp over the Wench-mobile, the list of all the people we’d like to individually thank would fill a book, so instead to all of you we send our collective heartfelt thanks and lots of wench hugs. In parting though, we would like to make one special note of appreciation. Here’s to you William Shakespeare—For your inspiration, your skill, and most importantly for helping us have a ball! And so with a final bow, we bid adieu! In Appreciation, Willie’s Wenches
