Along with my internship, the University of Dreams also sets up activities around London for all of us to do, so we can get a chance to experience all of the city. This week they set up a tour of Shakespeare's globe theatre, followed by ticketes to one of his plays, As you like it, that was currently playing at the theatre. I found it extremely interesting because the theatre was built almost identical to the original, thatched roof and all. The day we went on our tour it was supposed to be raining, which in London is obviously very typical. Our tickets for the play were standing tickets so not only did we stand for the three and a half hour play, but if it would have rained we would have gotten extemely wet! (The theatre is completely open, except for the small roof that covers the stage.) Luckily the rain held off until later that night, and the play was excellent! If anyone has not read As you like it, I definately recommend checking it out!
