Shakespeare's London Years 1591-1613 |
|
Our British presenter, Rebecca Flynn,
offers us a horseback journey into London and a walking tour around over a
dozen London sites that conjure up the presence of William Shakespeare
during his London years. Rebecca Flynn, Deputy Director of Education at the
Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, visits many Shakespeare haunts that include:
the Tower of London; St. Paul's Cathedral; the Middle Temple for law
students; George Tavern, a venue for outdoor plays; Southwark Cathedral,
where his brother Edmund Shakespeare is buried; and the London Globe Theatre
site. Ms. Flynn examines the authenticity issues and the story behind the
1623 First Folio, describing the role of Heminge and Condell as editors. The
video is the first to examine authentic Shakespeare locales in a 21st
century environment. (22 mins.)
