We went to see a “As you like it” performed by Theater Hikes at The Morton Arboretum today.
I really wasn’t expecting much, considering the venue and price of the tickets, but I was pleasantly surprised. It was pretty good for a community theater production.
Yes, it was hot… very hot. And humid. But there was a intermittent breeze and we moved around a bit.
The production values weren’t quite on par with Broadway or even Marriott Theatre, but given the situation, it was fun to watch. Somehow I don’t think Bill Shakespeare had jeans in mind when he wrote the play.
I think we’re going to try and see “Sleepy Hollow” in September … it will be cooler then. Not sure how they are going to do the headless horseman.
