The Play's the Thing

Apologies for the absence. My internet connection at Stratford has been sporadic at best so I've been checking my email and not much else. We've been here over a week, and I've been feeling rather trapped in the tiny village, although all the Tudor buildings are beautiful.

Since we've been here, we've seen three productions by the Royal Shakespeare Company, Merchant of Venice, Taming of the Shrew, and Midsummer Night's Dream. On Thursday, we're seeing Hamlet, which is this year's 'hit' since it stars David Tennant (the current Dr. Who) and Patrick Stewart (Jean-Luc Picard from Star Trek).

I'll post my opinions about the plays later, as well as a recap of my day biking through the Midlands!
