I greatly enjoyed the performance of Richard III at Ludlow.
Sadly I cannot say that I enjoyed my visit to the town.
Upon arrival, after a lengthy drive, the public toilets are locked, what a scandal. Public transport is not an option for getting there.
Trying to park is a nightmare. I found a space near a town council van, only to be confronted by the driver telling me I couldn’t park near his van as he didn’t like having to reverse it. He and others then had a rant about about visitors to the town.
As it was raining we decided to use the market stalls as shelter for our picnic before the performance. The council employees went out of their way to make us feel most unwelcome, complaining about all the extra work that the visitors brought into the town.
I enjoy open air theatre productions. Ludlow is not the only venue, and if the town wants to attract visitors it needs to bring itself out of the 19th Century. I for one will not be returning, despite the very good production at the castle.

Those fireworks were amongst the best I have ever seen in my entire life! Great concert, thank you so much Ludlow!
