Playing Richard III in an outdoor theater, made of concrete that was like an oven.
In Medieval brocades and velvets, plastic armor, and a foam rubber hump on my left shoulder. And Richard is onstage almost continuously in the play!
The show went on, but we players were afraid that the play's body count would be higher than Shakespeare intended.
