Globe to Globe Again

This channel has been developed to help create a community of online viewers for the films of the Globe to Globe Festival that took place in 2012 at Shakespeare's Globe. This Festival was part of the Cultural Olympics and featured all 37 plays, performed by theatre companies from all over the world. 

Shakespeare's Globe has made the films of the Festival productions available for free during the Covid 19 pandemic. https://globeplayer.tv/globe-to-globe Let's watch them. 

My name is Dr Christie Carson and I am a Shakespeare Scholar who has published work on recent performance history of the plays and the impact of the digital world on teaching and performance. This moment, when we are all at home and have some time, provides an extraordinary opportunity to recreate the community that developed during the Festival.
