Originally conceived by Mark Rylance in 2017, Shakespeare's Globe is delighted to return to Westminster Abbey for six special performances in March to celebrate Shakespeare's birthday. Join us for a promenade performance, as a cast of actors create a beautiful and unexpected world, bringing the words of Shakespeare to life in this iconic and sacred space. Audience members are invited to explore the Abbey, encountering actors performing extracts from some of Shakespeare's most famous plays and sonnets in intimate encounters. Consider the war-weary soldier or the hapless lover, behold a great Monarch or bide awhile with a lone and prayerful soul as you wander the famous Abbey at this special event.
