Hamlet, Globe to globe : taking Shakespeare to every country in the world

Dromgoole, Dominic2017
Books, Manuscripts
In the middle of the Calais 'Jungle' refugee camp, Dominic Dromgoole watches from the makeshift wings, as Hamlet delivers his monologue. Four years earlier, Dromgoole decided to mark the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death by sharing his beloved playwright with the entire world. Over two full years, Dromgoole and The Globe players toured all seven continents performing the bard's most famous tragedy in sweltering deserts, ice-cold cathedrals and heaving marketplaces. 'Hamlet Globe to Globe' is an unprecedented theatrical adventure, in which Dromgoole shows us the world through the prism of Shakespeare.
