The intersection of Shakespeare with queer culture and history shapes the future as much as it does the past. At the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, we take the same approach, and so at the beginning of 2023, we want to look back on the Proud Shakespeare of last year in order to look forwards to the future.
Cheryl Morgan, guest speaker for OUTing the Past Festival 2022, introduces us to the subject of her talk ‘Girls on Stage’, and gives us her insight into the research she has been pursuing on gender play upon the Shakespearean stage.
