Born here and baptised in St Botolph’s, his father had a pub on Bishopsgate. Marlowe wrote Dr Faustus and other plays for him and he became spectacularly successful with his own theatre and bear baiting company. His will still benefits the Central Foundations schools today.

It led me on a hunt for Shakespeare residences. Thanks for the inspiration!

Love the blog which I discovered yesterday!

You may be interested in ‘Shakespeare’s Women’ – a bit of fringe theatre being performed in the Old Blue Last on Great Eastern Street at 3.00 on Saturday afternoon. This is of course just about where Shakespeare’s original theatre was. The piece is being performed by Lights of London who did ‘Shakespeare in Shoreditch’ at the same venue last year.
