www.shakespearesglobe.com/seasons/winter/Henry V, Titus Andronius, Winter's Tale, Hakawatis: Women of the Arabian Nights. I will probably see a couple of these, but disappointing that there are no plays by Shakespeare contemporaries.

Also disappointing Read Not Dead rehearsed readings are not returning, a whole season of those were announced pre-Covid but have not yet been rescheduled.

Interested by Titus Andronicus. It's a play I have wanted to see for some time. I would prefer if another theatre took it on like the National or Almeida as I think it deserves a large scale production that really gets into the gory side of the play.

Actually it works better in a small theatre - it makes the violence really immediate and oppressive. |

But no more are currently scheduled. |

What happened to the idea of having non-Shakespeare Jacobean plays at the Inigo Jones?

Would like to book some of these but never again will I sit on those hellish benches for three hours. My spine will never be the same again. All for authenticity but there are certain Jacobean traditions that should be left in history. Put some seats in!
