Go Make You Ready
William Shakespeare lived two lives. In London he was an actor and an author who wrote successful plays and was famous for his poems. In his home town of Stratford-upon-Avon, he had a wife and children whom he rarely saw.
Go Make You Ready, a new theatre piece from Guildhall School of Music & Drama, takes Shakespeare鈥檚 sonnets and interweaves them with scenes from some of the plays, to examine the Bard's relationship with his family and his wife鈥檚 view of her playwright husband. It explores the final moments of his life and the memories that may have flooded through his mind and body as he passed into death.
