Living Shakespeare

30 Apr - 2 May 2009 (various dates)

Cost: Apr/May & Jul courses: £200 (2 plays)
Sep course: £300 (3 plays)

Anyone wishing for a special experience of Shakespeare's plays and the environment that inspired him can take a short break in his hometown of Stratford-upon-Avon. Each year, the three separate Living Shakespeare courses include visits to Royal Shakespeare Company productions.

The Living Shakespeare programme focuses on the Bard through a range of lectures and discussions, together with an opportunity to talk to actors and other theatre professionals involved in recent shows. Each break includes evening meals and visits to Stratford-upon-Avon's theatres, although visitors are required to make their own arrangements for accommodation.
