"I had a dream, past the wit of man to say what dream it was."

Since several people have expressed interested this Saturday myself and the lovely the_mendicant will be going to see A Midsummer Night's Dream at Girton College Gardens as part of the Cambridge Shakespeare Festival. Anyone else interested?

I am semi tempted to tart up for it big time...

Yes, please!
Are you organising the tickets? Let me know and I pay you back.

I saw their Midsummer Night's Dream a couple of years ago (they had mulled wine!), if it's half as good as that performance it will be fantastic. Would love to join you, but I'm off to see Comedy of Errors with Alice on Wednesday, and I'm trying to be kind to my bank balance. Will let you know if I randomly change my mind :)

*gasp* I could never do that! I've decided I'm going to walk around the Tower of London in a Tudor dress, possibly a copy of Anne Boleyn's, if I get around to making one. But it's sort of bad manners to turn up in period costume to an event where there are actors who are wearing the same, unless you're also an actor. Especially so if your costume is more authentic and better than the actors' as will probably happen if this is a university production.

Don't tart up too much, you'll be mistaken for a cast member!

Saw some gorgeous frock coats the other day that made me think of you; there's a guy who does the London Fetish Fair (or all places!) who buys old costumes from the National Opera and suchlike. They had some beutiful stuff, and pretty reasonably priced - certainly less than you'd pay for a mass-produced garment in a similar style from Black Rose or Raven.

I was just thinking as it's Saturday advance tickets might be a good idea?

Let me know where you want to meet up or maybe you can give me a lift?

ooh.
