Big ambitions for Shakespeare’s Globe in 2008

Dominic Dromgoole has announced an ambitious new season for Shakespeare’s Globe in 2008, which kicks off earlier than usual on 23 April, Shakespeare’s birthday, with the tragedy King Lear.

Presented under the banner Totus Mundus, thought to have been part of the motto of the original Globe – Totus mundus agit histrionem (The whole world is a playhouse) – the season comprises four Shakespeare plays, two new commissions, two touring productions and one new production by a visiting company.
