Life on Wheels: CliffNotes is where it's from

We headed to Cedar City, Utah a few weeks ago. We finally attended the Shakespearean Festival and had a wonderful time! We saw four plays in two days: 39 Steps, The Merchant of Venice, Great Expectations, a New Musical, and Macbeth. Alfred Hitchcock's 39 Steps is a funny play that is a blend between Alfred Hitchcock with Monty Python. Some might find it hysterical, but I was not one of them. I am not a huge Monty Python fan. Some people think those movies are hilarious, I just think they're annoying. Sure it can be funny, but not laugh-out-loud funny. The Merchant of Venice was my favorite even though I wasn't as familiar with the storyline as other Shakespeare plays. The only information I had on The Merchant of Venice was because of Stephenie Meyer and Breaking Dawn: the girl saves the day and it has a happy ending. Shakespeare was definitely politically incorrect, funny, smart, and poignant. Great Expectations, a new musical was good. I have to admit that I don't think I read this book in high school like I was supposed to. I remember seeing the two film versions though. Even after watching this musical, I still have questions about the characters. The song "Great Expectations" was probably my favorite out of all the songs. Miss Havasham was great and Pip's voice was awesome! I was a little tired of plays when we watched Macbeth. Since it was raining, we were excited that we were going inside to watch Macbeth. However, when we found out that we were no longer in the front row but in the last row, we were extremely bummed. At intermission, the rain had stopped and everyone proceeded to the amphitheater where we sat in the front row. We called it the spitter section since you could see the spit flying out of the actors' mouths. On the down side, I jumped at every loud noise uttered on stage. The witches acted like they were having seizures; it was awesome! Lady Macbeth's transformation from adoring wife to psychotic lady was amazing! It was so cool when Macbeth and his wife's hands were covered with blood.
