Open air Shakespeare, even though:

-it is an anachronism
- the Prof wasn't keen
- the local "castle" which provided the setting was assembled form bits brought from ruins about a hundred years ago (really is delightfully mad with a fireplace on the outside..)
- it wasn't really warm enough and I ended up resembling a large heap of car-rugs .

it was still magical.
