Shakespeare in London – the Life of the World’s Greatest Playwright
Manage episode 361293050 series 2990772
400 years ago, in 1623, Shakespeare’s plays were brought together in one book: The First Folio - the most important work in English literature. This podcast tells the story of the Bard’s life in London: how the writer left the tiny village of Stratford-Upon-Avon in search of success in the capital, how he became an actor, writer and theatre owner; how his company dismantled an entire theatre building and moved it across the River Thames - and how his beloved Globe burned down. And why we, very nearly, lost half his plays forever.
