Feb 2009 (various dates)

Cost: £290 per course

Anyone wishing for a special experience of Shakespeare's plays and the environment that inspired him can take a short break in his home town of Stratford-upon-Avon. Each year, the three separate courses include visits to Royal Shakespeare Company productions.

The programme focuses on the Bard through a range of lectures and discussions, together with an opportunity to talk to actors and other theatre professionals involved in recent shows. Each break lasts for three-and-a-half days, with evening meals and visits to the theatre included, although visitors are required to make their own arrangements for accommodation.

Please contact the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust for full details of future courses.
