Join a captivating event that delves into the legacy of William Shakespeare and the vital role played by his friends Henry Condell and John Heminges. Without these dedicated actors, many of Shakespeare’s masterpieces, including Romeo and Juliet, could have been lost to history.

After Shakespeare’s passing, Condell and Heminges embarked on a mission to compile the First Folio, tirelessly borrowing, begging, and collaborating to preserve the words that shaped their lives. This engaging presentation will illuminate their inspiring journey and the challenges they faced, highlighting their determination to honor their friend’s literary legacy. Attendees won’t want to miss this opportunity to explore the stories behind the preservation of Shakespeare’s work!
