The actors were definitely knowledgeable and had plenty worth saying, but it would be nice to see them act out more scenes from the writers quoted. Most of all, we would have liked to have heard an explanation of whose work was being presented BEFORE scenes were acted out. Also, while it was neat to have "drinking time" at two of the pubs so we could get to know the other tourists, we would have preferred cultural information or literary information at ALL pubs. Several of us definitely signed up for the tour for the literary aspect, NOT all for the "pub" aspect....
