Event Details

Update 3/10/23: In light of the tube strike being called off ticket booking for this event has been extended to 12 noon on 4 October.

Sir Nicholas Hytner, director and film producer, and Professor Emma Smith, Professor of Shakespeare Studies at Oxford, will explore all things Shakespeare.

They will be discussing Twelfth Night and its Middle Temple connections, as well as text, circumstance and cultural change.

This will be a developing conversation between Master Hytner and Professor Smith and is certain to be a thought-provoking evening. 

Tickets £25.
