What makes each Shakespeare Retreat special?

Every retreat offers a vibrant and flexible programme of activities, allowing you to participate as much or as little as you like.

Each retreat features a mix of:

  • Daily guided play readings with discussion and analysis of key scenes and moments.

  • Workshops designed to explore and unlock the beauty of Shakespeare’s language and verse.

  • Lectures and presentations on Shakespeare’s plays, playhouses, and the latest research, including performances by candlelight.
