Day 954: Macbeth, again
Oct. 30th, 2022 11:59 pmBackdated and pasted from Facebook:
Tonight we watched "Macbeth: The Scary Bits" - super fun from Free Shakespeare in the Park! The Morse Ranch was a much better location than Amazon Park had been last year. Our photos aren't great, but they give some sense of the atmosphere. Two moments gave me pause...
1. The bloodcurdling scream associated with the death of Lady Macbeth. I hope it didn't alarm the neighbors in this otherwise quiet residential neighborhood.
2. The moment during the famous "Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow" speech when an audience member whispered audibly to his companion that "these lines weren't really in Macbeth." Um. I hope she looked it up for him later.
They're hoping to make this an annual event - I hope they do!
