Shakespeare Goes Multi-lingual

The Globe to Globe festival in London, England will have a new and ambitious twist on Shakespeare this spring.  

It’ll feature six weeks of Shakespearean plays in thirty-seven different languages, including British Sign Language, Arabic and American hip-hop.

Festival director Tom Bird hopes that even if the audience doesn’t speak the language, they will still appreciate the beauty of it.

The Globe to Globe festival kicks off in April, on William Shakespeare's birthday.
