"Today we left for a train to Stratford. That is where Shakespeare was born, raised, and died. We are staying here for two days. Tonight we saw Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors, which was pretty funny, but not nearly as funny as A Midsummer Nights'sDream, which I didn't tell about. It was really funny (I mean hilarious) and well done, and Puck was cute! And tomorrow night we will see Romeo and Juliet, and I mean the REAL one. Today was mostly a rest and relaxation day."
With my father being a Theater professor, I've seen many shows in my lifetime. We saw a lot of shows on that trip, and especially being in Stratford, how could you not? Stratford was so quaint and darling, I'd love to live in a place like that someday. It was pretty peaceful, without a lot of hubbub. The Comedy of Errors was pretty funny, but it's true it wasn't quite as funny as A Midsummer Night's Dream was. A Midsummer Night's Dream we saw in London was one of the funniest plays I have ever seen to this day, hands down. That, and The Pirates of Penzance at the Shakespeare festival in Cedar City. Funniest plays I've ever seen.
