Tonight was the opening performance of this year's Shakespeare in the Park series. We've driven by these plays several times over the years, but never attendend a performance. However, Joe, a security guard at Central Libary, has a part in this season's performance of "Two Gentlemen of Verona", so it seemed like a good time to check it out. Joe's the one with the dog on the play's web site.
Marty and I picked up some sushi, sandwiches, chocolate-covered fortune cookies and citrus-flavored bottled water at the deli and had a picnic in the park before the performance, which was fairly good - humorous and bawdy. Are we Californians now, or what?!
Since I will be going to Hawaii for a month to help Mom when she gets out of rehab, this is the only one of Joe's performances I will be able to attend, and I wanted to support him and his avocation.
