NYC #4: Representations of Shakespeare

The Delacorte Theater in Central Park, Manhattan is the home of 'Shakespeare in the Park', the performances of which are in the summer and free to anyone queuing (and queuing and ...) for a ticket. As we hate queuing these performances will remain unseen by us. But meanwhile, these statues outside the theater are of interest:
 
Obviously Romeo and Juliet in a classic romantic pose.

And The Tempest. Both of these sculptures were a gift by George Delacorte.
