says Trixie the Cat….
Brothers and Sisters of The Shakespeare Code,
In October, 2011, The Code received its….
10,000th VIEW!!!
And on 2 November, 2011, enjoyed its best day ever with…..
161 VIEWS!!!
To celebrate we are publishing an HISTORICAL PHOTOGRAPH which was thought lost FOREVER…..
But which Your Cat found lurking in The Code’s old files…..
- Edmund Kente (Malvolio) Steve Bennet, (Fabian) Mike Burnside (Belch) and Patrick Romer (Aguecheek).
It is the Box Tree scene from Twelfth Night in our Chief Agent’s production of the play (designed by John MacMurray) at the Northcott Theatre, Exeter, in 1985….
Stewart Trotter was the Artistic Director of the theatre from 1980-85. (Click ‘Biography’ above).
Here he can be seen polishing Fabian (Steve Bennet’s) head….
If you would like to read the late B. A. Young’s review of the production – which was set on a frozen river – please click here.
‘Bye now….
P. S. Nearly forgot about the film Anonymous…..
…….it’s beautifully acted, beautifully directed and, visually, it’s beautiful as well….
It claims that ‘all art is political’ ….. a creed close to the heart of The Shakespeare Code.
In short, it is a movie that asks all the right questions…..
BUT COMES UP WITH ALL THE WRONG ANSWERS!!!
Wait for The Code’s…..
SHAKESPEARE: THE MOVIE
in production now….
