I had a wonderful experience in the UK. I have wanted to see the RSC in Stratford for years and had the opportunity to take a couple of days to do so. No one else was interested. (Their loss IMO). I bought as good a ticket as was available and took advantage of the pre-theater dinners at an exquisite restaurant. I dressed up, had a fabulous time dining as I asked the waiter about his favorite actors and then went to the theatre. The performance was magical, and I had some wonderful conversation with my seat "neighbours". It would have been fun with a companion, but I made up my mind it would be fun by myself.
