Shakespeare in the Park

Last night my friend Heather and I went to see Shakespeare in the Park. It’s a live play that runs almost every week night for about a month. The stage is completely 3D, almost like a house you are looking into!!

The play was called “The Wives of Windsor,” not only was it wonderful, but it was FUNNY!!! Heather and I brought a sheet to sit on, a bottle of wine (EVERYONE did, lol), and hummus with flat bread! The play started promptly at 7:30 and went all the way until 10:30 with only a short intermission!!! The beginning was a little hard to follow because of the old english dialect, which made it hard to catch the names of the characters in the beginning. But once we got out the program and started to listen, we got the hang of what was going on. Plus I read the synopsis online beforehand! LOL The basic plot is one gentleman trying to woo two wives with an identical love letter he sent to both. When the two girls figure out what’s going on, they plot to humiliate him in front of the whole town. Once those two ladies get together it really gets hysterical!!

It was nice because we were still able to chat with one another, and lounge on our blanket. It was packed though so we didn't have the best seats. I want to go back again to see it!!! It was so cool!! And FREE! And it didn't rain at all! WOOHOO!!!

I have always wanted to do that! I actually looked it all up earlier this summer and got all the information, but we never went. I am so jealous!!
