What's the most memorable thing that's happened to you at an outdoor performance?

Hi everyone, Guild Festival Theatre here, we are an outdoor theatre company based in Scarborough. We are genuinely curious - what's the most memorable thing that's happened to you at an outdoor performance? Last year we had a vole run on stage during a performance. Fortunately the scene was in the kitchen of a medieval castle so it just made it look like Elsinore had a rat problem. Tell us your experience, good or bad or weird, or unexpected, we want to hear your stories
