Hamlet Globe to Globe | 
A little Sunday night Shakespeare for the soul. Not quite halfway through the tagged book yet, and still making up my mind about it, but there's no doubt that the project it chronicles - a two-year, worldwide tour performing Hamlet in every country on earth- is grand, audacious, and worth learning more about. #CurrentlyReading
pickA touring company from the Globe Theatre in London goes on the ultimate tour: 2 years travelling round the world in an attempt to put on a performance of Hamlet in every country.
I was expecting more of a travelogue but it turned out to be a series of reflections on the play with traveller's tales and reflections on people and places mixed in. And once I'd mentally shifted gears, it worked very well.
I‘ve been a bit absent the last few days, I haven‘t rly been reading. The covid19 situation is awful for everyone and yesterday they had to close my beautiful workplace the Globe. Ppl are having to make much bigger sacrifices but this really hurt me. It‘s the first London theatre I ever went to and it made me the nerd I am today. I‘ve never asked for money on the internet before but if anyone is able to donate I‘ll drop the link in comments
Gorgeous thoughtful present from my friend to celebrate my job at the Globe! Can‘t wait to read this
pickI thought this was going to be more a travel a book, but I was very happy to find it more a book of theater and a book about Hamlet. There are plenty of travel stories, but Dromgoole uses a lot of them to discuss theater and the play. #shakespeare
Amazon order came in. One for research and one for learning and feeding my Shakespeare love. #shakespeare
I want! #TBRtemptation #BN
pickDominic Dromgoole's account of the programme by the Globe Theatre to perform Hamlet in every country of the world within 2 years is both entertaining and informative. In addition to the trials and tribulations of the prophecy, he offers sharp insights into the historical context and literary complexities of the play.
