Macbeth at Shakespeare’s Globe, London Where it all began Why go? In April 1564, in a half-timbered wattle-and-daub house on Henley Street, William Shakespeare entered the world. And almost ever since, this comely Warwickshire town has been, unofficially, Shakespeare-upon-Avon. For centuries tourists have flocked here to commune with the bard; an o...
Where the players played Why go? The Globe, erected on the south bank of the River Thames in 1599, was one of the first purpose-built playhouses in London. It burnt down in 1613, when a canon ball fired during a production of Henry VIII ignited its thatch. It was quickly reconstructed, but demolished again in 1644, to make way for cheap housing. Ho...
Where the world ends Why go? ‘There is a cliff, whose high and bending head looks fearfully on the confined deep’ (King Lear, Act 4, Scene 1). The blinded Earl of Gloucester is not in a happy place when he stands atop the iconic White Cliffs of Dover, on the very edge of Britain. Shame, because they are a spectacular lookout. One particular precipi...
Where magic happens Why go? In Shakespeare’s As You Like It, the Forest of Arden is a simple, idyllic realm, free from the corruptions of court. Located to the north of Stratford-upon-Avon, the real forest was the woodland of William’s childhood, helping to inspire his love of nature. The area had been largely deforested even by Shakespeare’s time;...
Where Will trod the boards Why go? Rufford Old Hall was built for Sir Robert Hesketh in around 1530 and is one of the finest Tudor piles in Lancashire. Its crowning glory is the timber-framed Great Hall, which contains a dramatic hammerbeam roof, an exquisitely carved 16th-century screen – and a potential explanation for Shakespeare’s ‘lost years’....
Where Will (might have) walked Why go? Shakespeare was bound most closely to two places – Stratford and London – and journeyed between them many times. No one knows exactly which route he took, but the 146-mile Shakespeare Way, which links his birthplace to London’s Globe Theatre, is a most-scenic best-guess. The trail, created in 2006 to raise mon...
Where the works live on Why go? The Willow Globe takes Shakespeare back to nature. This unique theatre in mid-Wales, a third the size of London’s Globe, is constructed amid the lush surrounds of the Upper Wye Valley from living willow trees, which are carefully woven into the most magical auditorium. It’s a surreal and secretive dell where it’s eas...
Where ghosts lurk Why go? The Merry Wives of Windsoris the only comedy Shakespeare set in England – the action plays out around Windsor Forest. It’s here that the irreverent Falstaff eventually gets his comeuppance under an old tree said to be haunted by Herne the Hunter, a legendary antlered phantom who hanged himself from its branches. The real H...
Where movie magic was made Why go? True, none of Will’s heroines actually wafted along the sweeping sands of Holkham. But in 1998’s Shakespeare in Love, this beautiful north Norfolk beach stole the show, the movie’s final shot panning up from Gwyneth Paltrow’s Viola striding out to the distant sea at low tide. It’s a setting worthy of Shakespeare: ...
Where fact and fiction blur Why go? There’s no evidence that Macbeth was the tyrant portrayed by Shakespeare. Indeed, in 1050 the real-life king Mac Bethad mac Findlaich made a pilgrimage to Rome – not the act of a ruler worried about the stability of his position. So, as Shakespeare blurred fact and fiction, so should a good Scottish Macbeth Tour....
The love story emerges as Shakespeare's muse walks inland from the wreck of a perilous voyage to an unknown land. Holkham Beach also features in 'A Warning to the Curious', 'Mosquito Squadron' and 'Operation Crossbow'.
Holkham Beach was used to stunning effect in the closing shots of Shakespeare in Love (1999) with Gwyneth Paltrow’s character apparently washed up on the shores of Virginia. The multi award-winning film is wonderful, but absolutely eclipsed, of course, by the best stretch of sand in Britain.
