A celebration of the
spirit that has brought together so many different people from so
many different places in the new Globe’s amazing fifteen years, in
2012 'The Play's The Thing'.
The season begins with
the unprecedented Globe to Globe. Over six weeks you can see all of
Shakespeare’s plays performed by 37 international companies,
each in a different language.
Following the festival,
Jamie Parker, much loved in Henry IV Parts 1 & 2,
returns to Hal’s journey in Shakespeare’s masterpiece Henry
V.
That most outrageous of
comedies The Taming of the Shrew will
delight and shock audiences with its screwball double-act and
controversial conclusion.
We are then delighted
to welcome Mark Rylance back to the Globe stage to take on two of
Shakespeare’s major characters – the title role in a new
production of Richard III and a reprisal
of his celebrated performance of Olivia in Twelfth
Night, 10 years after its premiere.
Returning from last
year, following their great success both here and on the road are the
touring productions ofHamlet and As
You Like It.
