Exploring Theatre in Stratford-Upon-Avon

This final episode in our Stratford-Upon-Avon mini-series revolves around all things theatrical. First, there's a little  history on where in the town Shakespeare found his inspiration, then there are 'visits' to all three Royal Shakespeare venues as well as information on the company's museum of props and costumes. Whether you want to discover Stratford's theatres, see a play or learn more about life behind the scenes, all you need to know is here.
