"Through the Looking Glass" by Chris Blakely, from the Seattlest Flickr pool

We saw Wooden O's very likable, well cast A Midsummer Night's Dream on Saturday (traveling to Lynnwood's Lynndale Park next weekend); they're the high-production-value team, with actual mics and speakers and something very like a set. Here's their summer schedule; they're also doing Romeo & Juliet (at Mercer Island's Luther Burbank Park next weekend).

That's really all we wanted to tell you. You got your Shakespeare, your Alice in Wonderland, your Wind in the Willows. It's all free, up in your Volunteer Park. We posted about it all here. The weather is supposed to great, so remember to pack lots of water, slather on the SPF, and maybe even wear a hat if you're catching an afternoon show. Two or three hours sitting still in the sun can really take it out of you.

One of the nicest things about summer is that there are outdoor events, concerts, plays, and all manner of public park activity. This year, every weekend for almost a month in Volunteer Park, Open Circle Theater will be presenting Alice in Wonderland. What's more, the whole thing is free and only an hour long—perfect for the little ones (and, let's face it, some of us big ones, too) who lack any real attention span. The press release promises "gales of laughter." That's all we know for now, but you bet Seattlest will be there to fill you in on how it goes, once it all gets underway.
