Shakespeare, Marsden, Griffiths
Shakespeare: Raising the Bard (a panel discussion)
With Andy Griffiths, John Marsden, Tony Thompson and Jenny Lovell
Get to know Shakespeare old and new at this panel discussion featuring two of Australia’s leading writers for young people. Andy Griffiths has relased Just Macbeth, and John Marsden was inspired to write his own take on Hamlet. They will be joined by Tony Thompson, teacher and author of Shakespeare: The Most Famous Man in London, and director and actor Jenny Lovell, who trained and performed at the Globe Theatre in London.
(Tony described this as like being the support act to Led Zepplin and Pink Floyd. We think he’s up to it.)
