The statue of Puck at the Alabama Shakespeare Festival in Montgomery is missing some fingers...intentional or accidental damage to a statue that had already suffered a more official slight,according to a story in today's The Montgomery Advertiser:
It seems that even when we here in the Deep South rise above our humble roots and manage to create a facility as absolutely world-class as ASF, we have to act like rubes when skin---even on a statue!--- is exposed.
It was moved out of the foyer (of the theater) because there were complaints about how little clothing Puck has on.
I have another ASF story.
ReplyDeleteA year or two ago I went to buy some tickets. I entered through one of the front doors, tripped over a square base of a round column and went sprawling. I ended up with a gash on my hand.
So, if you see a "Use other door" sign on one of the entrances, you'll know why.
So much for "David."
