Sounds like one of those happy combos of alcohol/atmosphere/mindfulness.
We attended one of the Shakespeare plays back in the day. The atmosphere was wonderful, but the play was so horrifically bad my eyes are bleeding just thinking about it. If they put some
good summer theatre up there, it could be wonderful.
