There is some debate over whether Shakespeare was born on St George's Day or not but it's all the excuse the Globe needs to host three events to celebrate Shakespeare's Birthday - the last of which happens to coincide with St George's Day on Friday 23rd April. Sign up for some Sonnet Walks on Saturday 17th April and you'll be beckoned back into Tudor times and 16th century London. Sonneteers entertain the walkers along the route which starts from either Westminster Abbey or the Shoreditch site of Shakespeare's (only recently uncovered) lost theatre, The Theatre, finishing at the Globe. The next day, Sunday 18th April, the theatre hosts a free Open Day inviting people to come in and see the theatre for themselves with a whole host of activities and workshops to get to the heart of Shakespeare's craft and couplets. For the Bard's 446th birthday itself, celebrated on St George's Day 23rd April, there's the chance to see the opening night of Macbeth, the new production marking the start of 2010 theatre season which explores Shakespeare's Kings & Rogues. About Shakespeare's Globe Theatre
This replica of the Shakespeare's 16th century theatre, reconstructed just 200 yards from its original site, is the brainchild of American actor and director Sam Wanamaker. Built in wood and thatch, using techniques from 400 years ago, Shakespeare's Globe Theatre opened in 1996. More about Shakespeare's Globe Theatre
