Events for 2016
Introduction
It is hard to believe that Shakespeare’s death wasn’t acknowledged in London in 1616 with a procession, a poem or even an epitaph in print. In 2016 every major London cultural organisation is contributing to a year–long Shakespeare 400 festival. Indeed the 400th anniversary will be commemorated in theatres across the world. 1616: A Momentous Year will, I hope, attract families and individuals, schoolchildren and scholars, Shakespeare lovers and Shakespeare sceptics. It includes our first Shakespeare story–telling weekend, a puppet show, and Twelfth Night for family audiences; a Kabuki Shakespeare and a range of summer schools; pre–and post performance events to complement Emma Rice’s first exciting season as artistic director; a series of streamed Sam Talks from the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse; an international conference for teachers and a World Shakespeare Congress for scholars. But Shakespeare’s death wasn’t the only significant theatrical event of 1616. Ben Jonson audaciously published a Folio edition of his Works. Playwright Francis Beaumont, theatre impresario Philip Henslowe, Spain’s Cervantes and the Chinese playwright Tang Xianzu also died that year.
Two exhibitions will feature Henslowe/Alleyn documents from the collection at Dulwich College and the Shakespeare First Folio recently discovered in St-Omer, France. Globe Education’s Read Not Dead series will celebrate Jonson’s Folio plays, a play by Beaumont, English plays influenced by Cervantes and plays promoted by Henslowe. Two student actors from China will perform a scene by Tang Xianzu in Mandarin at the Sam Wanamaker Festival. Our momentous year ends with a conference on Cultures of Mortality and a staged reading of Webster’s The White Devil. Any hint of bleakness will be upstaged by a joyous concert in December. Choirs of 3 – 93 year olds will sing in celebration of Shakespeare, Southwark and the Globe.

The Read Not Dead ground-rules are simple. Actors are given the play on a Sunday morning and present it, script in hand, to an audience later that afternoon. What follows is a shared spirit of adventure and excitement for actors and audiences alike who sense that they might be uncovering a neglected gem.
The Devil is an Ass
Pandosto: The Triumph of Time
Set in the vice-ridden world of early Jacobean London, Jonson’s dark comedy follows the young demon, Pug, as he carries out Satan’s work.
by Robert Greene Sunday 7 February We continue our exploration of sources for Shakespeare’s plays by staging a dramatised reading of Robert Greene’s 1588 Pandosto – the novel which inspired The Winter’s Tale. This performance with scripts will be directed by Tom Cornford whose brilliant staging of the source of Othello last year was widely acclaimed.

READ NOT DEAD
Pandosto, King of Bohemia, is racked with jealousy and accuses his wife Bellaria of adultery with his childhood friend, the King of Sicilia. In his rage he sends their daughter, Fawnia, to die at sea, an act which causes the death of his wife and son. Fawnia’s fate hangs in the balance as she drifts ashore in Sicilia.
by Ben Jonson Sunday 17 April The Devil is an Ass was first performed in 1616 – too late to be included in the folio edition of Ben Jonson’s Works.
Pug quickly realises that his wickedness is no match for the debauchery and immorality that already governs the city. Even Fabian Fitzdottrel, his chosen victim, seems unreceptive to Pug’s torments. Could that be because Fitzdottrel is already under attack from some very human devils attempting to steal his money and his wife?
Time: 4.00pm Venue: Sackler Studios, Shakespeare’s Globe Tickets: £10 (£8 FoSG/Student)
Greene’s romance explores the corrosive effect of jealousy on a ruler, his family and his kingdom.

First performed at the Globe by the Lord Chamberlain’s Men, the play makes allusions to Julius Caesar and Henry IV Pt 2. It is a sequel to Every Man in His Humour (1598) which included Shakespeare among the cast and which was staged as a Read Not Dead in 2014.

Read Not Dead: Back By Popular Demand
The coxcomb
Sunday 2 October
by Francis Beaumont & John Fletcher Sunday 13 November
The plays for this year’s Back by Popular Demand voting event honours the 400th anniversary of Philip Henslowe’s death. All the plays chosen were produced at Henslowe’s Rose.
We conclude this year’s celebration of Cervantes’ influence on English drama with the witty and raucously funny The Coxcomb inspired by an episode from Don Quixote.
Other events celebrating Henslowe’s Rose include lectures by Grace Ioppolo, and David Crystal, an international symposium, a stage reading of Marlowe’s Dr Faustus in original pronunciation and an exhibition of theatrical treasure from Dulwich College.
The traveller Mercury is in love. Unfortunately, the subject of his devotion is the beautiful Maria, the wife of his companion Antonio. When all seems lost, the witless Antonio unexpectedly vows to gift his wife to his friend as proof of his everlasting friendship, leaving Maria determined to revenge her husband’s foolishness. Meanwhile, Ricardo’s elopement with the virtuous Viola is frustrated by the young man’s passion for drink and merrymaking.

The white devil
#ReadNotDead
by John Webster Sunday 4 December
Love’s Pilgrimage, The Chances and The Coxcomb are produced in association with the Instituto Cervantes.
Originally performed at The Red Bull, John Webster’s tragedy of murder and sexual intrigue explores the turbulent relationship of Italian noblewoman Vittoria Corombona and the Duke of Bracciano, whose desire to be together is hindered only by the fact that both are already married to other people. Their passionate affair sets in motion a series of bloody events that showcases the macabre extent of Webster’s tragic vision, and the clarity of his insight into the corrupting effects of power, greed and ambition. Webster’s play has been chosen to complement the Cultures of Mortality conference which runs from 1 – 3 December. *Venue and prices for The White Devil and The Coxcomb to be confirmed.

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND VOTING EVENT Thursday 2 June Over 200 plays written between 1567 and 1642 have been staged in the Read Not Dead series since the reading of Amends for Ladies launched the project in 1995. One of those plays will be revived as the final staged reading in Globe Education’s third season in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse. You have a chance to decide which one. Rounding off our series of Henslowe and Rose inspired events, four directors will team up with four scholars and present their arguments for reviving one of four plays first performed in the Rose. Actors will stage a selection of chosen scenes and vie for your vote. The winning play will then be performed as our final Read Not Dead of the season in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse. Previous events have delivered fun, surprises and enlightening discoveries; come and cast your vote at the hustings before joining us for the performance of the chosen play on Sunday 2 October in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse.

READ NOT DEAD ON THE ROAD at Gray’s Inn
ORIGINAL PRONUNCIATION READING
The Scornful Lady
Dr faustus
by Francis Beaumont & John Fletcher Sunday 23 October
by Christopher Marlowe Performed in original pronunciation Sunday 22 May
Shakespeare’s patron, the Earl of Southampton, was a member of Gray’s Inn and the first recorded performance of The Comedy of Errors took place in Gray’s Inn Hall. Read Not Dead on the Road returns to the beautiful and intimate setting of the Hall for the third time for a performance with scripts of Beaumont and Fletcher’s The Scornful Lady. 2016 is not only the 400th anniversary of Beaumont’s death but also the 400th anniversary of the first publication of the play. The comedy was extraordinarily popular with numerous revivals until the middle of the 18th century. Members of Gray’s Inn will join Globe actors to present the comedy in the Hall, in a staged reading directed by James Wallace.
As part of the celebrations marking 1616, Passion in Practice returns to the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse to present a staged reading in original pronunciation of Marlowe’s Dr Faustus. First performed at Henslowe’s Rose, this staged reading will follow the text of the play published in 1616 which has some additional scenes by Rowley and others. This will be the Company’s first experiment with Marlowe in OP and will take place in the candlelit glow of the Playhouse. The staged reading will be followed by a Q&A with Professor David Crystal, Ben Crystal and members of Passion and Practice’s creative team.
Time: 4.00pm Globe Education is indebted to the Treasurer and Under Treasurer of Venue: Sam Wanamaker Playhouse, Gray’s Inn for hosting Read Not Dead Shakespeare’s Globe once again.

SAM WANAMAKER FELLOWSHIP LECTURE Remembering and Forgetting Shakespeare (and Cervantes and Jonson and Beaumont), or, What 1616 (and 1916) Did For Us Professor Gordon McMullan (King’s College London) Thursday 9 June The Shakespeare 400 London–wide celebrations marking the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death are the brainchild of Professor Gordon McMullan.
Picture credit: ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.
His talk will mark the Shakespeare Quatercentenary, addressing what it means to ‘remember’ Shakespeare in 2016 and reflecting on the ‘forgetting’ that is also required. The forgetting not only of aspects of Shakespeare’s life, work and legacy, but also of certain of his contemporaries, notably those who died in the same year (Cervantes, Beaumont) or whose significant publication (the Jonson folio) has been overshadowed in subsequent centuries by Shakespeare’s cultural dominance.
Miguel de Cervantes, novelist and playwright, died on 22 April 1616.

‘Know ye, I? Yea, that I do’: The very theatrical death of theatre entrepreneur Philip Henslowe in 1616 Professor Grace Ioppolo (University of Reading) Thursday 19 May Theatre entrepreneur Philip Henslowe is now largely remembered for his ‘Diary’ that records his financial dealings in building the Rose and Fortune playhouses, as well as his commissioning of over 325 plays from notable playwrights and his dealings with famous actors, including his son-in-law Edward Alleyn, and other theatrical personnel. But as his enormous archive at Dulwich College reveals, he was also a London property developer and wheeler-dealer who wielded influence not just in local politics but at court. Drawing on a number of original records, this lecture will look at the controversial events of Henslowe’s deathbed on 6 January 1616 that demonstrate the wide-ranging cultural power and financial success of theatre in Shakespeare’s England.
Lectures & talks
Ben Jonson’s Folio at 400 Professor Martin Butler (University of Leeds) Thursday 14 July The Works of Benjamin Jonson (1616) was an important precursor for the Shakespeare first folio (1623), being the first collected folio edition of plays and poems published by any playwright working on the English professional stage. This lecture will tell the story of the volume’s publication, and examine the image of the writer that it projects. It will explore the tension between the literary and the theatrical in Jonson’s texts, and ask how Jonson’s idea of the author compares with the figure that comes down from the Shakespeare folio.
The saint-omer Shakespeare first folio goes viral Professor Eric Rasmussen (University of Nevada) Thursday 11 August In November 2014, within hours of the Saint-Omer copy of the Shakespeare First Folio having been authenticated by Professor Eric Rasmussen, news of its discovery ‘went viral’, receiving an astonishing 12.5 billion online page views worldwide, and occasioning widespread claims that the volume proved that Shakespeare was a secret catholic. Professor Rasmussen will provide a fascinating insiders’ account of these extraordinary events.

Macbeth The added scenes
and the missing scenes
John Wolfson, Honorary Curator Rare Books (Shakespeare’s Globe) Thursday 18 August Macbeth is unusually short for a Shakespeare tragedy, suggesting that some scenes have been lost. The play also contains scenes known to have been added by another hand. The missing scenes and the added scenes are the subject of John Wolfson’s talk this year. Mr Wolfson will be assisted in his talk by Globe actors.
Time: 6.00pm Venue: Sam Wanamaker Playhouse, Shakespeare’s Globe Tickets: £10 (£5 FoSG/Student) John Wolfson’s play The Inn at Lydda will be in repertory in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse in September. The play imagines a momentous meeting between the Emperor Tiberius Caesar and Jesus Christ. Tiberius meets the famous healer unaware that he had been crucified only days before.

Thursday 10 November In association with Instituto Cervantes Londres Miguel de Cervantes was buried on 23 April 1616 by which time his writings had captured the English literary imagination. The first part of Don Quixote was published in Spain in 1605, translated into English within a few years by Thomas Shelton and published in 1612. In 1613 a now lost play, Cardenio, by Shakespeare and Fletcher, was performed inspired by an episode from the novel. The Novelas Ejemplares was published in 1613. Its stories were soon adapted for the stage by Fletcher, Middleton, Shirley and others. Some Cervantes’ inspired plays will be staged this year as part of Globe Education’s Read Not Dead series. This lecture, illustrated by Globe actors, will celebrate the influence Cervantes’ works had on 17th century English theatre.
Lectures & talks
CERVANTES’ BRITISH Influence on the ACADEMY English Stage LECTURE The British Academy Shakespeare Lecture ‘THE SHAKESPEAREAN UNSCENE’ Professor Lorna Hutson (University of St Andrews) Thursday 12 May Today, metaphors of enactment dominate discussion of Shakespeare. We talk about ‘staging’ and ‘performing’ abstractions: ‘staging history’, for example, or ‘performing nostalgia’. Critics have thus even made a conundrum of the fact that Hamlet ‘stages’ the process of ‘thought’. I will show, conversely, that in the sixteenth century, the real innovation in English theatre was less performative than rhetorical. Influenced by neoclassicism, English dramatists began to use techniques of rhetorical inquiry to supplement theatre’s mis-en-scène. I will show how irresistibly Shakespeare draws us into imagining offstage ‘scenes’ as part of a drama of the psyche: this is the seductive Shakespearean ‘unscene’.

The Shakespeare’s Globe Book Award is given biennially to a scholar whose first monograph has made an outstanding contribution to our understanding and appreciation of the theatre of Shakespeare and his contemporaries. The Award supports Globe Education’s mission to promote the work of new scholars. Books published in 2014 or 2015 were considered for the 2016 Award.
In 2004 David Crystal was Master of Pronunciation at the Globe and helped reconstruct the accent of Shakespeare’s day so that the Globe Theatre company could present an acclaimed production of Romeo and Juliet in OP. It was the first time the accent had been heard on a London Stage for 400 years. Ben Crystal, curator of the British Library’s CD of Original Pronunciation, is the foremost developer of OP practice since the Globe’s first experiments a decade ago.
The winner is invited to give a public lecture in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse and receives a cheque for £3,000.

HAMLET & JAPAN AN EVENING OF TALKS AND PERFORMANCES Thursday 7 July Shakespeare took hold of the Japanese imagination in the 1880s and has never let go. There were over 180 Shakespeare-inspired productions in Tokyo in 2014 alone! Shakespeare’s Globe celebrates Japan’s fascination with Hamlet in an evening of talks and performances. The first serious Japanese translation of ‘To be or not to be’ will be performed alongside a comic version – in English and in Japanese – written in 1874. The evening will culminate in the Kabuki-inspired Visions of Ophelia performed by the renowned Japanese actress Aki Isoda who has toured her one-woman show around the world. Speakers will include Sir David Warren (former British Ambassador to Japan). It is presented in association with The Japan Society.

HAMLET & GERMANY Brudermord: THE PUPPET HAMLET Saturday 9 July Sunday 10 July Presented by The Hidden Room Theatre, Austin, Texas. In 1710, a mysterious, hilariously slapstick German Hamlet was found in the archives of a German monastery. The Hidden Room Theatre has worked with Oxford University’s Tiffany Stern to re-create this historic eccentric event as it may have originally been performed: a puppet show. The marionette show, suitable for scholars and children alike, employs on-stage narrators who perform all the voices, the music and all sound effects for the show. The 18th century German version includes additional comic characters and scenes but the show will be performed in English.

This is an opportunity to attend a full-scale, fast-paced 90 minute performance within the glory of the Globe Theatre, the architecture for which Shakespeare wrote. One of Shakespeare’s most vibrant comedies, Twelfth Night follows the adventures of twins, Viola and Sebastian. Shipwrecked in the strange land of Illyria, they attempt to find each other again. Viola disguises herself as a young man and enters the service of Duke Orsino. When the Duke sends her to profess his love to Olivia all manner of confusion and chaos ensues, added to by a group of Olivia’s miscreant relatives and servants. Packed with laughs, love and music the play explores themes that children will recognise from their own lives and will leave children and adults alike buzzing with the thrill of live theatre.

INTERNATIONAL TEACHERs’ CONFERENCE
The International Shakespeare Association invites you to Stratford-upon-Avon and London for its Tenth World Shakespeare Congress: Creating and Re-Creating Shakespeare The 2016 World Shakespeare Congress – 400 years after the playwright’s death – will celebrate Shakespeare’s memory and the global cultural legacy of his works. Uniquely, ambitiously, fittingly, this quatercentenary World Congress will be based in not just one but two locations: in Shakespeare’s birthplace, and final resting-place, Stratford-upon-Avon; and in the city where he made his name and where his genius flourished – London. The 2016 hosts – in Stratford, the Royal Shakespeare Company, the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, and the University of Birmingham’s Shakespeare Institute; in London, Shakespeare’s Globe and the London Shakespeare Centre, King’s College London – look forward to welcoming delegates from around the world to share in a range of cultural and intellectual opportunities in the places where Shakespeare was born, acted, wrote and died.

SYMPOSIA
cultures of mortality: death on the Shakespearean stage
Intercultural Performance: HAMLET
1 – 3 December
Recent decades have seen a steep rise in the number and variety of performances, adaptations, appropriations and translations of Shakespeare’s plays around the world. Globalisation has created a new critical awareness of the diversified contexts of performance and reception of Shakespeare at multiple centres around the world.
2016 sees the 400th anniversary of the deaths of Shakespeare, Francis Beaumont, the theatrical entrepreneur Philip Henslowe and the Spanish dramatist Miguel de Cervantes. Globe Education is marking this memorable year with an international conference that explores death, rituals of dying and the experience of loss on the early modern stage. Men and women in early Jacobean England understood that death could have significant social, cultural and artistic implications, not least because the country had recently been plunged into unexpected mourning by the death of the Stuart heir to the throne, Prince Henry. How did dramatists respond to these powerful social and emotional forces in their engagement with morbidity, mortality and bereavement? The conference is intended for scholars and students but is open to all members of the public.
Venue: Nancy Knowles Lecture Theatre, Shakespeare’s Globe Tickets: £75 (£65 FoSG/£45 Student) #CulturesofMortality
Friday 22 April
This symposium will celebrate the enormous range and diversity of Shakespearean intercultural performance and explore some of its critical implications. How do particular performances map local or global socio-cultural and political contexts? What do these performances say about local politics and histories? If Shakespeare has become a global icon or brand, what are some of the implications for local cultures? What kinds of relationships and what kinds of contexts develop between touring companies and international audiences? These are just some of the questions, approaches, and perspectives explored in the symposium. Shakespeare’s Globe is a stimulating venue for a symposium on intercultural production and exchange. The symposium will feature keynote addresses and panel discussions from renowned Shakespeare scholars from around the world. It coincides with the return to London of the tour of Hamlet.
Time: 9.30am – 6.00pm Venue: Nancy Knowles Lecture Theatre, Shakespeare’s Globe Tickets: £55 (£45 FoSG/£25 Student)

HENSLOWE’S ROSE Saturday 21 May The Rose Playhouse is doubly unique, thanks to two very different examples of archaeological evidence. A few other early modern theatre sites survive in fragmentary form but The Rose is the only one likely to reveal its entire shape, once further archaeological excavation is undertaken. In addition, unlike any other playhouse of Shakespeare’s time, The Rose can boast records on paper that provide insights into the working life of a theatre, its actors and its repertory in the 1580s and 1590s. This is thanks to Philip Henslowe’s surviving accounts and papers, including Henslowe’s ‘Diary’ as well as his original 1587 deed of partnership to build The Rose. Leading international theatre scholars and archaeologists gather together to mark the 400th anniversary of Henslowe’s death, and share the latest discoveries regarding the theatre which staged plays by Marlowe, Kyd and Shakespeare. Speakers will include: Julian Bowsher; Andrew Gurr, Mark Hutchings, Grace Ioppolo, Farah Karim-Cooper, Sally-Beth MacLean, Alan H. Nelson, Will Tosh, Brian Vickers and Martin White.
Time: 10.00am – 5.30pm Venue: Nancy Knowles Lecture Theatre, Shakespeare’s Globe
fortunes & Folios: Two Exhibitions at Shakespeare’s Globe Henslowe’s Rose: Theatrical Treasure from Dulwich College 11 May – 29 June The great actor Edward Alleyn used part of his theatrical fortune to build a school in 1619, known today as Dulwich College. His gift also included personal effects, manuscripts and the diary owned by his father-in-law, Philip Henslowe. The diary provides unique insights into the running of the Rose Playhouse. Some of the Henslowe/Alleyn treasures are displayed by kind permission of the Master.
Shakespeare Re-discovered In St-Omer 4 July – 4 September In September 2014 the Librarian in St-Omer stumbled across a book on the shelves which turned out to be a hitherto unknown copy of the 1623 Shakespeare First Folio. Before the discovery only 232 copies were known to have survived. The world can now boast a 233rd. The St-Omer Folio will be the centrepiece of a special exhibition which will place the 1623 volume in context of other important books and folios of the time.
