This is a hidden speech theatre in the mountains.

Createdwill Geerat1950builtMcCarthy Erabuilt< span class="s1">. Theatre named afterJohn Parkinson found of a herb called Theartum Botanicum 🌿 . AfterWill Geer passed away , his family converted the place into a developing open-air opera house. (from Google)



This time I went to seeThe Crucible, the plot is full and vivid, and the actors are special Dedicated and handsome actor who plays Hale . As soon as I enter, there are interactive games, and then small activities related to dramas in groups: for example, I participated instage combat, vocalization, and attention. Of course, there is also an introduction to behind-the-scenes work, etc....

I have lunch time after the little tutorial, during which I walk around the theatre. Next is to enter the open-air theater to watch the play.

During the viewing period, you will find various stage structures, and the actors disappear without paying attention.< span class="s5">Then silently appears in a corner.

A plot takes place wherever the scene is exposed, even if the audience's attention is not there, the actors are performing all the time.

There is a question and answer session at the end....Due to time constraints Opportunity to attend🤧

What amazes me the most is the elusive actors and the secrets of the stage...Very Unfortunately, no opportunity to explore.


⚠️Due to rules and respect for actors, no photography is allowed during the performance...< /span>It's a pity.

However, you can still see some pictures of the theater on the Internet.

I am very curious about where the path behind the stage goes back....





On the way totopanga canyon on the way Visit from flats to tall buildings to tree-lined hills.< span class="s5">It's like going from a farm into a city and into a deserted mountain.



⚠️Pay attention to the time and tell the daily traffic jam when you go there.

     This time I am in the morning 7:40Leaving around.






I saw different buildings along the way.






TV station! It's so tall and there are trees...A rare tall building in California .






After driving all the way to a sparsely populated place, I drove all the way through the mountainside road, and accidentally found this small piece of cactus. It finally feels like a desert



Drive all the way to the top of the mountain and you will find a theater that you will miss unless you look carefully.


The theater is full of pure nature, birds and insects, and lush trees. Houses are surrounded by low trees.



Limly visible grove garden



Wander around to see different scenes of various outdoor theaters.

There are also bridges, swings, and an open-air theatre that cannot be photographed.

Walking here can feel like you are in the woods and want to explore every corner. p>



YesThe driver on the road took us to experience a moment of life and death.

Because of the bus, when the car turns towards the sea, there will be an illusion that the car is driving towards the sea. Stimulate!



On the way back, you can see a large sea. Keep meeting by the sea and pass bySanta Monica beach. (You can go in and have fun)








There is a banner with a website written outside the theater, and there is a log cabin at the entrance, full of activities about the theater, and other consultations.

这是一个隐秘于山林之中的话剧院.

创建者will Geer1950年的McCarthy Era建造的. 剧院命名于John Parkinson 发现的一种名为Theartum Botanicum 的草药🌿. Will Geer 过世后、他的家人把这个地方改为了一个开发的露天歌剧院. (源于Google



这次去看的是The Crucible、剧情饱满生动、演员特别敬业、而且里面饰演Hale 的演员好帅. 一进去先是互动游戏、然后分组进行话剧有关的小活动:比如我参加了stage combat、发声、和注意力. 当然据说还有介绍幕后工作等...

小教程结束后有午餐时间、在这期间我就走剧院到处闲逛. 接着就是进入露天剧院看剧啦.

看的期间就会发现各种不同的舞台机关、以及一不注意演员就消失了.然后又在某个角落默默出现.

所有曝漏于场景内的地方都会有剧情发生、就算观众的注意力不在那边、演员也每时每刻都在表演.

结束后还有一个问答环节....由于时间有限没机会参加🤧

最让我惊叹就是神出鬼没的演员以及舞台的秘密……很可惜没有探索的机会.


⚠️由于规则和尊重演员,表演期间不可拍照...有点可惜.

不过网络上还是可以看到一些剧院的图片.

十分好奇舞台后面的小路回去哪里....





在开去topanga canyon 的路上 可以看见从平楼变为高楼大厦又到树木葱茏的山丘.犹如从农场进入城市又进入荒芜人烟的深山.



⚠️前去时注意时间、告诉日常堵车.

     这次我是早上7:40左右出发的.






一路上见识到了不同的建筑.






电视台哦!好高有木有...加州难得一见的高楼.






一路开到人烟稀少的地方后、进过山边大路一路开、意外发现这一小片仙人掌. 终于有沙漠的感觉了……



一路向山顶开就会发现一家不仔细看就会错过的剧院.


剧院内就是纯纯的大自然、鸟语昆虫飞、树木葱茏. 房屋都是被矮树包围着.



隐约可以看见的小树丛花圃



在里面闲逛可以看到各种露天剧院的不同场景.

里面还有小桥、秋千、以及一个不可拍照的话剧院的露天话剧厅.

在这里逛着可以感觉自己就在树林里、而且每个角落都想去探索.



程路上司机带我们体验了一把生死一瞬间。

由于乘坐的是巴士,当车子开向海转弯的那一瞬间会有车往海开过去的错觉。刺激!



开回去的一路上可以看到一大片海。一直靠海开会经过Santa Monica beach。(可以进去游乐一番)








剧院外有写有网站的旗帜,入口处有一个小木屋,有着满满的关于剧院的活动,等咨询。
