Sad news. Bruce had an amazing voice ! And he and Maria were wonderful as Beatrice and Benedick

I'll never be able to think of the role of Benedick in 'Much Ado About Nothing' without thinking of Bruce Wharton and hearing his voice. He did an exemplary and sterling job of embodying the role.

According to reports I'm getting from Zimbabwean friends, former U.S. Ambassador David Bruce Wharton has died. I don't have much more news than that. I expect there will be obituaries in the national press tomorrow. 

For those who may not know him, Bruce Wharton (we knew him as Zimbabweans knew him, as "Bruce") attended Shakespeare-at-Winedale in 1978 and 1979.

Even those of us who do know him may not know that he was beloved by Zimbabweans.
