Folks, what I’m about to tell you may not apply to very many of you – it’s the sort of niche, uber-specific travel advice that only a few of you will benefit from, but I still think it’s worth sharing. For those of you who to whom it doesn’t apply, I hope you will at the very least find it entertaining. Sort of. Maybe.
The advice is this: If you go to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, I highly recommend taking the backstage tour.
Take it, because it’s only $12 a person, and you get to see parts of the theater that only cast and crew get to see.
Take it, because you’ll get the chance to see the stagehands tear apart a set and build a new one with such speed and ease, it feels like something out of Inception (even if you haven’t seen the movie. And I haven’t. Tell me nothing).
There were only three of them. They tore the place apart like a Fraggle destroying a Doozer-built creation.

I suppose you want to know what all this nonsense is about. You’ve come to the right page...
