Reports Report 2449aao (Event 2449-2017)

Observer
Name Karen Lee P
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I am the artistic director of the Greater Victoria Shakespeare Festival, which occurs outdoors on the grounds of Camosun College in Victoria BC. Saturday night was our closing performance of Macbeth, and I was sitting at the back, up the hill opposite our playing area. At the moment just after Macbeth kills Young Siward (which he does in our production by slitting his throat), I saw the fireball in the eastern sky. I recognized it, as I saw another one from Thetis Island in September of 2014.
