Jennifer and I went to Shakespeare in the Park Saturday. The performance was "Much Ado About Nothing" and is now in my top 3 Shakespeare plays (Julius Caesar and The Tempest being first and foremost). The acting was wonderful but we were completely put off by two factors #1. They used modern music!! When I go to see Shakespeare I expect madrigals! END OF STORY!! #2. The woman in front of me was not only dressed 3 decades too young for her but also missed the memo that smoking in a public park in NY was banned a good 5 years ago! Maybe it's me being uppity but when I see theater I expect there to be a certain level of class upheld. I'm not sure if this woman had ever heard the definition of classy but if so she obviously had NO intention of reaching such a state!! That being said, I can't believe I went so long having no idea we have an outside amphitheater in Syracuse!! I'm truly a dope sometimes : / It's so lovely and I can't wait to see it in the Fall! I wore my favorite summer top and jeggings (my new favorite pant). I didn't bother to comb my hair at all but at least I threw on some eye makeup in the car on the way.
