Presented in a series of box-theatres and enjoyed through headphones, the Bard’s finest tales are condensed to eight very marvellous minutes and yet remain packed with humour, love, scheming, death and revenge.Celebrating 400 years since his birth, this is Shakespeare as you’ve never experienced it before!
