In the 400th year since Shakespeare’s death, Guildford Shakespeare Company are marking the occasion with their annual Will’s Birthday Bash and 5th Sonnet Walk Weekend.
Firstly, a special illustrated lecture on Shakespeare’s last will and testament, will be given in the presence of the Cobbe Portrait, the only portrait painted of him during his lifetime. Then on the big weekend itself GSC’s popular Sonnet Walks take to the streets again, where walkers will discover pieces of Shakespeare in the least likely of places. Celebrations come to a close with a special staged-reading of Cymbeline in the evocative St Mary’s Church.
We hope you’ll join us for another week of special events in Guildford, celebrating Shakespeare’s great legacy to us all…
