Hot pink for a hot ticket!

We’re big fans of Shakespeare. He could take the wittiest, saddest or most tragic of stories and turn it into one of those fun three-hour English school exams you’ll remember for the rest of your life.

What a brilliant bloke!

So, to celebrate this British ledge, there is a Shakespeare Lives Microfestival happening in Toronto from April 7-21, 2016.

Spur-of-the-Moment Shakespeare Collective, the Toronto Public Library and the British Council, bring you the Shakespeare Lives Microfestival to celebrate the Bard’s work on the occasion of the 400th anniversary of his death in 2016. Join them this spring in Toronto for an innovative and interactive programme of performances, workshops and debates.
