Ben's family and I went to a play at Shakespeare's Globe Theater. It's so cool - it's an exact replica on pretty much the same spot that Shakespeare would have his plays performed. Or something like that.
The show wasn't Shakespeare, though (fine with me - that gave me more of a chance to actually understand it.) It was a new play about Thomas Paine and the American Revolution. Now I know how painful it must be for Brits to hear American actors fake English accents...their American accents were awful. To top it off, about halfway through Ben and I both realized why the guy playing Thomas Jefferson sounded so familiar...he was imitating Will Ferrel doing George Bush! Somehow that just seemed blasphemous.
