On the 450th anniversary of Shakespeare birth, the Globe Theatre undertook an unprecedented theatrical adventureto tour a production ofHamlet to every country on earth. The tour was the brainchild of Dominic Dromgoole, artistic director of the Globe, and inHamlet Globe to Globe, Dromgoole takes readers along on this extraordinary artistic journey.From organizing such a massive venture, to directing a play that can travel in trunks, and finding a cast of actors versatile enough to play multiple parts and rugged enough to survive the adventure, Dromgoole reveals the backstage mechanics of this grand expedition. He takes us to the remarkable places the company performs, from the Ukraine on the eve of an historic election, to a Syrian refugee camp in Jordan, to Somaliland, where boy soldiers holding AK-47s escorted the company to the first play presented there in more than twenty years.Hamlet Globe to Globe is also the story of Hamlet, itself. Dromgoole explores the play history and sees firsthand how it still helps us to understand our world. A highly original book about an amazing undertaking and a beloved play,Hamlet Globe to Globe will be a delight to readers and fans of drama.
