I forgot to mention this. On Sunday, Brett, Justin, Dave, Carly,
Robert and I decided to hit the theatre to see "The Tempest".
Normally, I'd save the money, but it was a Shakespeare play, in
Shakespeare's Globe Theatre (not the original. That one burnt down.
This one was built closeby and has been built as a replica of the
original), AND it was only 5 pounds to be a groundling! Needless to
say, it rocked my socks off. Brett has a degree in Fine Arts from the
University of Idaho, so he filled us in on the details after the play.
I understood most of it, but it was 3 characters playing 12 parts,
with few props. It was quite evident that you needed to know the story
beforehand to understand their interpretation.
All in all, the play was good. It was 2 hours of standing in a throng
of people, but it was good times.

Agree and I'm a 'local' and for £5 ($12) Its a fun and engaging way to see it and makes a mockery of those huge theatres and modern productions that appear to be the only way live acting can 'pay'.
I'm going later on in the summer.
