I expect that the anniversary show for 2014 will either be on Saturday evening, May 10, or Monday evening, May 13. If you reserve both of these shows, you are most likely going to see the anniversary show. The only time that it has been switched to March 31 was for the 5th anniversary, and that was because of scheduling conflicts for Stephen Daldry, who had a film in the running at Cannes that year.

The discussion about the 10th anniversary date, it seems to me, is probably very premature at this point. Yes, the company is holding out on those dates, but I expect that is because a decision has not been made yet. Since neither March 31 nor May 12 falls on a Saturday or a Monday, they are probably still trying to decide what to do, and the chosen celebration date may well be neither of those days.

Thirded. While I agree it is too early to do much of anything it would still be wise to do a gathering on a different night as we did in Hartford. Keeping my fingers crossed that I can make the trip.

Ellen, With Saturday being the 10th May ( 2014) then Monday will be the 12th, not 13th. Hope you don't mind that being pointed out.

Not at all, dancingboy. Of course Monday will be the 12th. So much for my counting skills. :roll: :D
