Shakespeare's Magic: All the World's a Stage

Encounter a series of pop-up performances inspired by moments of magic in Shakespeare’s texts. On each hour, a performer will be hidden in a surprise location across Level 1 of the British Galleries. 

 

From magical transformations to foreboding prophecies, Shakespeare’s work is laden with figures who play with the uncanny and call upon supernatural forces. Students from Royal Holloway, University of London’s MA Directing have explored the V&A collections, to create a series of immersive performances.
