Shakespeare Tonight
Event Date: 18/09/2015, 06:00 pm
If Shakespeare were living & working today, who would he be?
If Shakespeare were living and working today, who would he be? Tom Stoppard? Or Quentin Tarantino? Keith Richards or Russell Brand? A genius, an outsider, or just plain ‘Bill’?
In Shakespeare Tonight The Bard is very much alive and kicking. Hamlet has opened (to ‘mixed’ reviews!) and William is giving his first ever TV interview. Finally, we have the chance to ask the questions that have kept us all guessing: Are these plays really his? What’s his true relationship with Anne? Why, after years of comedies and romances, has he suddenly turned to tragedy?
The host is TV sensation Martina Fleur (with a little help from The Duke, her music maestro). Second guest? None other than Francis Bacon, philosopher, QC, and Shakespeare’s biggest rival. After falling from grace at court, can he revive his fortune and write his place in history?
Watch Martina battle for control as these two heavyweights slug it out live in the TV studio, each round punctuated with songs from Shakespeare’s Greatest Hits.
