The fellows in Birmingham and surrounding areas: The fellows visited the Birmingham Royal Orthopaedic Hospital and joined their hosts in the clinics or in the O.R. and obtained a real flavor of orthopaedic care in the area. After lunch the fellows went site-seeing with Marcus, a senior registrar who was an excellent guide and host. The fellows explored Warwick castle and viewed the dungeons and torture devices as well as the spectacular living quarters. A great deal was learned about life in the castle during the different ages.

The fellows left in the late afternoon for Stratford-on-Avon where they attended the museum at the birthplace of William Shakespeare. After dinner in a local pub, the fellows were rejoined by their hosts and attended a performance of Tales of Ovid by the Royal Shakespeare Company at the Swan theater. Seating at the Swan theater is in the round, Similar to the late 16th and early 17th century theaters familiar to Shakespeare. The performance was energetic and exciting and was enjoyed by all. The group then went to a local pub which has been frequented through the years by many outstanding contributors to the theater where several members of the cast were also present. The day was an outstanding exposure to the history and culture of the area.
