Shakespeare in the City

I'm always up for some Shakespeare, especially when it's my favorite - A Midsummer Night's Dream.  So I was pretty excited to hear that the Annapolis Shakespeare Company would be performing it this summer - under the stars and on the water in the garden of the Charles Carroll House.  Unfortunately our performance was rained out last night, but luckily this evening was the perfect weather for a show.

Other than a few (okay a lot) of rules and regulations for where you could and where you couldn't sit, the night was wonderful.  The actors were fantastic and the costumes were gorgeous.  Because we were outside, there wasn't a sound system or mics which made it a little difficult to hear. But most of the actors were able to get past that by speaking loudly enough.  The show was so good and engaging that even the mosquitoes had to be enjoying it since I didn't get bitten even once : )

With the weather, the view, the talent and the material, it was an absolute perfect summer night in Naptown!
