Since then, with great support from Square Books\u2019 Richard Howorth<\/strong>, our Thacker<\/em> family, and the Board of Directors, the show has grown in scope to be syndicated statewide, supports a full-time executive director and produces nearly 30 shows each year in Oxford and various cities across the state.<\/span><\/p>\n
