Allie Esiri presents Shakespeare for Every Day of the Year

About the Show

The anthology takes you on an epic journey through the calendar year, covering key moments from Shakespeare’s work, life and times, with each day marked by a corresponding speech, sonnet or scene from across his magnificent canon. From Malvolio in yellow stockings for Twelfth Night, to Richard III clamouring for a horse on the date of the Battle of Bosworth, or a love sonnet to mark Shakespeare’s marriage to Ann Hathaway and Juliet’s July birthday, to Henry V and his band of brothers at the Battle of Agincourt, the evening will feature powerful and timely readings from actor Niamh Cusack (and one other still to be announced).
