Elizabeth Winkler & Sir Derek Jacobi
Live event at the London Library 6th Jun 2024
UK-based Shakespeare sceptics will be interested to know that this event has just gone live on the London Library website:
Elizabeth Winkler will be joined at the Library by one of the greatest Shakespearean actors of our time, Sir Derek Jacobi. They’ll be in conversation with author and critic, Stephanie Merritt.Â
We thought you’d like to know ASAP, as we imagine it will sell out very quickly. Grab your tickets now! Our normal weekly post will be with you in less than 24 hours.
Ros - this should be a great event. I note that certain non-experts in the media have taken umbrage that the London Library should host such an event. I know you have been involved in countering these rather ignorant men. Do you have any updates?
And for those wishing to prolong the debate across the Channel, the American Library in Paris has just announced their hosting an event with Elizabeth Winkler in June:

A brilliant heretical evening just a few steps away from the Eiffel Tower, who could turn that down?
