Grassroots Shakespeare Company

Last night Cody and I went to see the triple feature put on by the Grassroots Shakespeare Company--A Midsummer Night's Dream (all male cast), Twelfth Night, and Hamlet. The shows started at eight in the evening and finished just before 1am.  They were incredible, definitely some of the best (if not the best in terms of A Midsummer Night's Dream) Shakespeare performances I've seen.  The audience was a part of the play, there were groundlings, and even though we were sitting there for about five hours it didn't feel like it.

If you want to find out more--especially if you live on the Wasatch front--go to their website.

Oh yeah! It was in the Castle Amphitheater at the Utah State Hospital where Cody and I had some of our engagement pictures taken.  I'd been wanting to see a play performance there for three years and that dream was finally able to come true last night.
