Shakespeare for Every Day Of The Year - Live!

Best-selling author Allie Esiri and Regents Park Open Air Theatre present Shakespeare for Every Day of the Year – Live!

Allie Esiri will be joined by a star-studded cast including Paul Chahidi, Damian Lewis, Toheeb Jimoh, Stephen Mangan, Tracy Ann Oberman, Tony Robinson, Danny Sapani, Samantha Spiro, Luke Thompson, Samuel West, Olivia Williams and Susan Wokoma for a hugely entertaining evening based on her  anthology: Shakespeare for Every Day of the Year. 

To celebrate 400 years of Shakespeare’s First Folio and over 90 years of Shakespeare performances at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre, Allie Esiri and friends will guide you on a journey through the Shakespeare you know and the best bits you don’t. There will be speeches and scenes performed by actors with a special connection to his work and to the theatre itself. It was here, for example, that Damian Lewis spent a season playing Hamlet, Susan Wokoma acted in the recent hit production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Samantha Spiro performed an acclaimed Beatrice in Much Ado About Nothing and won an Olivier Award for Hello Dolly!.

Shakespeare For Every Day of the Year by Allie Esiri is an inspiring collection of 365 speeches and scenes from across all of Shakespeare's plays, each with an illuminating introduction. Join us for a night of great performances, laughter, wisdom and wit.

Actors line up subject to change. Check the website for further actor announcements.

Allie Esiri's Shakespeare for Every Day of the Year and A Poet for Every Day of the Year signed books will be available on the night.
