A New History Of Women And Stratford-Upon-Avon Tickets and Dates

Taking place on Zoom on the second Wednesday of every month, our online Research Conversations provide you with the opportunity to listen to people who are engaged in Shakespeare-related research.

On 10 August we welcome back Professor Katherine Scheil to discuss how women have helped to shape 'Shakespeare's Stratford' over the last three centuries? How has the town itself galvanized women's intellectual lives and bolstered their sense of independence?

Many of the famous spaces that comprise contemporary Stratford - the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, Shakespeare's Birthplace, the gardens at New Place and at Anne Hathaway's Cottage - owe their foundations to the women who were drawn to Stratford to find meaningful employment, effect political change, and help nurture the growing Shakespeare industry.

Led by Professor Katherine Scheil, University of Minnesota.

The event begins with a thirty minute presentation and will be followed by an open discussion. Please note this is an online event held on Zoom.
