Shakespeare in your park

I haven’t been to a theatre in a long time, so when the opportunity came up to go to one performed outside at the nearby park; I didn’t have to think twice about it!
We watched "The Merry Wives of Windsor" and the comedy was so much fun and dirty at times:)! I forgot how energizing and engaging the real-time performances are. Without any fancy decorations or special effects these guys kept us totally captivated and fascinated by their acting for two hours stright.
I was surprised to see so many people show up at the park. Apparently outdoor performances are happening all throughout the summer and are quite popular in the city. And now I know why: you get to enjoy real acting without huge ticket/food costs and in a more relaxed atmosphere.
I bestow upon you catching one of them! (couldn't stop speaking old English after the play!:))
