This arrangement of episodes from plays by Shakespeare and others explores the ways in which audiences respond, interpret, interact, interrupt – and occasionally disrupt – plays.

These extracts from Shakespeare’s plays will be brought to life by Globe actors in the perfect setting of the UnderGlobe exhibition space. Genre Learning
