In addition to enrolling in the Shakespeare Seminar I discussed in my last post, yesterday I also booked two tickets to August performances at the reconstructed Globe Theatre in London--King Lear and The Merry Wives Of Windsor.
This morning I was on the phone to the box office at the RSC in Stratford in a futile attempt to land a ticket for Hamlet starring David Tennant and Patrick Stewart. Seems like I am months too late for this hot ticket. I will hunt for a spare seat on the Internet and check with ticket agencies, but I may be out of luck. I may see The Taming Of The Shrew in Stratford instead the night before my program in Oxford begins in August.
Closer to home, I also am pursuing a ticket for this spring's Broadway run of Macbeth, also featuring Patrick Stewart.
