Walk You Will

A talk by David Hatfull of Diem Photography about our foyer exhibition of photographs.

This free event will be a half hour talk in the theatre foyer before doors open for the evening performance of Titus Andronicus.



Sometime around 1586, William Shakespeare left Stratford-upon-Avon and headed for London. We don't know exactly when this happened, nor the route he took, or whether he travelled alone or in the company of others. He was in his early 20s and was married with 3 young children; they probably stayed behind in the family home.

To academics, this is known as the lost years. 400 years later, David and Ronan Hatfull walked the 146 miles from the Bard’s birthplace to the Globe Theatre in London. This exhibition is a response in photographs and poetry about the landscape and people that we encountered on our journey.
