GOOD GROUND.

GOOD GROUND. Pinkney Park, two blocks from our house, is a small patch of land next to the Five Mile River. Ezra Barnes, the founder of Shakespeare on the Sound, was able to visualize that the small hollow and the small hill rising from the hollow could be converted into an arena. When Mary Jane and I walked down the hill last week to see THE COMEDY OF ERRORS, we found a full house covering the grass of the park—many families with small children, many picnickers. On occasion, there have been over 1000 people watching a performance. Shakespeare on the Sound has added an additional weekend in Greenwich, starting tonight. I hope that they have found another natural theater.
