Shakespeare's Villains - Don John

Anna Griffiths takes a look at Shakespeare's character, Don John, in past RSC theatre programmes and in the Shakespeare Centre Library and Archive picture collection.

Shakespeare’s Villains is a series of blogs by Finding Shakespeare and our education team. This week we are considering Don John from Much Ado About Nothing, perhaps one of Shakespeare’s most lacklustre villains.

Access and Interpretation Coordinator, Anna Griffiths, is looking at the character in past RSC theatre programmes and the Shakespeare Centre Library and Archive picture collection.

Pictures of Don John from RSC performances can be viewed in our Flickr gallery, and don’t forget to check out yesterday’s post by Blogging Shakespeare for a closer look at his character.
