More About the Course
Using the lens of power and its effects-enduring themes in both Shakespeare's works and life-you will learn directly from leading scholars, actors and directors while exploring the settings that inspired his genius. You will attend live performances at London's legendary Globe Theatre and Stratford's renowned Royal Shakespeare Theatre, as well as participate in engaging lectures, interactive workshops and lively pre- and post-show discussions. Along the way, you will explore landmarks that shaped his story-London's Southbank, Shakespeare's schoolroom, Anne Hathaway's Cottage, Hall's Croft, The Guildhall and his final resting place at Holy Trinity Church.
Your stay in charming, family-owned B&Bs in Stratford-upon-Avon will place you steps away from the historic streets and sites you'll explore each day.
This course begins and ends in London, easily allowing you to extend your time overseas if you choose.
