I'm glad you had a good time and a good story to tell! I used to have full-on rain gear on hand for occasions such as that! I can't tell you how wet and grubby you get trying to dry off the stage between showers or running around trying to get the props inside out of the rain before they disintegrate. And it is not water tight under that stage either! Oh good times, I miss it. The weather and the raccoons are what make outdoor theater so much fun. Glad you made it out of the Park safely!

Midsummer Night's Dream would never have done. Believe me, you will remember it forever. Can't imagine how wonderful Braugher was, and his mother as Gertrude??? Fantastic. I always hold Sir Laurence Olivier in my mind as the eternal Hamlet. Not even Richard Burton. I'm so glad you didn't have your camera because your description might not have been so precise and lyrical at the same time. You've got it, girl. I'm also glad you got home safe. I thought the trees outside my window were going to fall over. It had to be Hamlet, didn’t it? Midsummer Night’s Dream would never have done. Believe me, you will remember it forever.

And it takes a LOT to cancel an outdoor play - we used to go right ahead in the rain, as long at there wasn't thunder and lightening. That was a GREAT storm last night though - but sorry you couldn't finish Hamlet. I must go see it ~ I have a little crush on Sam Waterson.
