Marcia & Andrew

In the year 2000, we left our homes and work in Washington DC for France and the medieval village of Saignon, which we’d found in our travels. It was a huge leap, as we would be crossing not only the ocean, but also the generation of years between us, to set up a life together. Although we didn’t really know what we were looking for, we found a culture that values time, encourages knowledge, treasures beauty, and honors art and the artists who make it. Not to mention the best food and wine we’d ever tasted!
We invite you to come have fun with that kind of time, and rediscover in your play the powerful learning and growing you did as a child.
