The upcoming summer solstice will be celebrated in London by Shakespeare's Globe Theater with a special midnight performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream. For those hardy souls, breakfast will be available at the theater's bar and brasserie. This reminds me of people going to the late night showings of The Rocky Horror Picture Show on Halloween.
Since we are enjoying the outdoor life with the clear blue skies, blooming flowers and all types of wildlife, we may want to listen to some popular summertime tunes. Songs that come to mind from the Library's collection include ABBA's Our Last Summer, Beach Boys' Summertime Blues, Chad and Jeremy's A Summer Song, Kirsty MacColl's Last Day of Summer, John Mellencamp's Summer of Love.
