Welcome to Italy on Bankside! Our summer season begins this week as we transform the Globe Theatre to a luxurious paradise for Shakespeare’s timeless comedy.
After years of war, an idyllic Italian town is finally back in bloom. But young lovers Claudio and Hero, and sparring singletons Beatrice and Benedick, soon discover that all is not as it seems in their beautiful surrounds as they become entangled in a series of mischievous games, pranks and plots. Globe Associate Artistic Director Sean Holmes directs this Elizabethan-dress production.
