Daily Activities

Two actors performing excerpts from Shakespeare's plays at Hall's CroftAt the Shakespeare Houses there is always something interesting to see and do. Mary Arden's is a working farm and every day there costumed guides demonstrate the running of a Tudor farm. Please see the 'Demonstrations' page for the sort of activities you can expect to see at the farm.

This summer sees the introduction of a first for the Shakespeare Houses and Gardens. Wander round the houses as you watch and listen to actors performing excerpts from some of Shakespeare's best loved works. Please see the 'Shakespeare Aloud!' page for more information.
