To mark William Shakespeare’s birthday ( April 23 ) the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) has teamed up with BBCiPlayer to bring us six classics from its archive – all of them gems in their own way.
The plays will stay on iPlayer for a few weeks so your can spread out your viewing and I have seen only half of them so I’m looking forward to productions that will be new to me.
The season is part of the Culture Quarantine initiative and is also interactive taking viewers experience of the Bard.
