Hamlet: Globe to Globe: 193,000 Miles, 197 Countries, One Play

Hamlet Globe to Globe takes readers across all seven continents on a fascinating journey into the world of Shakespeare, Hamlet and the stage. From Dominic Dromgoole, former Artistic Director of The Globe Theatre

NEW YORK TIMES 100 NOTABLE BOOKS OF 2017

Over two full years, Dromgoole, the Artistic Director of the Shakespeare''s Globe Theatre, and the Globe players toured all seven continents, and almost 200 countries, performing the Bard''s most famous play. They set their stage in sprawling refugee camps, grand Baltic palaces and heaving marketplaces - despite food poisoning in Mexico, an Ebola epidemic in West Africa and political upheaval in Ukraine.

Hamlet: Globe to Globe tells the story of this unprecedented theatrical adventure, in which Dromgoole shows us the world through the prism of Shakespeare''s universal drama, and asks how a 400-year-old tragedy can bring the world closer together.
