...I love Shakespeare........it's not rubbing off on my children at all..........the town near our cabin has a great outdoor theatre that does Shakespeare each summer.......they won't go......they also won't stay in the cabin alone....brats......
During undergrad, I enrolled in the Theatre in London program...........a group from the Univ of Minnesota went to London for 12 weeks.....I was paying out of state tuition anyway so this was not more expensive...........basically......we had a few hours of class each week and were tourists the rest of the time.......I learned quickly that it's dirt cheap with a student ID to get a ticket to any show at the last minute.....they sell the tickets that no one picks up at will call right before the curtain lifts.......usually front row center......FANTASTIC......I saw Evita three times in one week..........Cats.....Blood Brothers.....something with Rex Harrison.....hog heaven, people.....that was the life......I loved riding the Tube....loved walking to the theatre district......and I got straight A's I'm sure....weekend trips to Scotland, Ireland, and the Southern Coast of England.....I slept in castles..I also added a month to the trip and Eurail Passed my way around Europe......Paris (ick), Nice, Venice, Heidelberg, Auschwitz, Switzerland.............and the land of Von Trapps.......woot.....Austria rocks.....
Abby does love musicals so maybe she can learn to love Shakespeare.....Jack liked Wicked but says he's done.....done with stages..........
