Unlike DM's experience, we were breaking heat records in SC this weekend. The glen was nicely balmy well into the night. The kinks have mostly been worked out. A friend had seen it last week and again this night with us and said that this performance was improved. The women in male roles was fine by me, but a little confusing (Like when Macbeth worries that Princess Malcolm will be an obstacle). The witches had masks on for a good part of the play and were mic'd but I found them difficult to hear. We managed to get an outcropping of space in the second row. I don't know how people further back could understand them. While sitting on the ground gets uncomfortable, we were rewarded with the 3D-esque MacDuff almost landing in our laps. You could almost reach out and touch him and you didn't have to wear any funny glasses.
What DM said about the sword fights. It bothers me when people hold it from the blade in a fight. There was lots of that. Come on people, sharpen your swords!
