SHAKESPEARE UNLOCKED: A PODCAST



In this podcast series, leading Shakespearean actors, directors, scholars and writers ask the question, what on earth is Hamlet talking about in his most famous and baffling soliloquy, "To be or not to be"?  No-one can agree on what it means - and the conversations often end up in the most unexpected of places ....

This podcast was made during the COVID lockdown crisis and all conversations were recorded over WhatsApp or smartphones.
