Good, those Greek plays are very interesting particularly when you read some background on them first. Aristophanes, for instance, was sort of the P.J. O'Rourke of his day, a conservative who attacked Socrates and others who questioned the Gods and tradition. Plus I actually like Philip Glass no matter what anyone says.

Here's the play they're doing -- it's actually not Shakespeare, go figure:

THE BACCHAE

For the final Shakespeare in the Park production, JoAnne Akalaitis directs Euripides’ tragedy, in which the government tries to outlaw desire. Philip Glass composed the original choral score.

It's a crazy process to get tickets to Shakespeare in the Park but we're going to try!
