It feels wonderful to finally hold this volume in the flesh - with playful contributions from 28 brilliant contributors - and it is so lovely to get to celebrate it as I engage in a very different kind of play!
Delighted to be hosting this symposium on 'The Local and the Global in Early Modern English Writing' @MooreInst@uniofgalway on Friday 1st and Saturday 2nd September. More info here:

Prescot (Lancs.) has taken #Shakespeare to heart. Not just @ShakespeareNP's reconstruction of an early modern playhouse but street art including a sweet trail of animal sculptures & quotations. Enjoyed the roundtable & Imaginarium community theatre's AYLI scenes @BSA_Conference
If you’d like to read more about this work in #SearchingforJuliet, my publishers @SceptreBooks have very generously today created a conference discount for delegates until the end of Sept! (£15 instead of £25!) DM me if you’d like the code!
Want to shout out the wonderful opportunity offered by @clamorousvoice to work on crucial work concerning how Shakespeare was deployed by the British in colonization and enslavement — really thoughtful, careful stuff happening here
A new Arden Early Modern Drama Guide, @DrPeteKirwan & @DuncanSalkeld's 'Arden of Faversham: A Critical Reader' is the first collection of critical essays on the play, offering surveys of scholarship & performance together with new directions for study.

Difficulties of studying and writing about Shakespeare and/in Ireland explained by @emeramchugh #BSA2023 but really worth thinking about in other theatre history sub-fields
Day 3 of #BSA2023@LivUni where highlights include a trip to the @ShakespeareNP - glad @BSA_Conference organisers have us travelling by bus & not dancing like Will Kemp! (@BSAShakespeare assures me Funky chicken & Macarena moves are optional)
Brilliant day 2 at #BSA2023, including participating in a fascinating seminar on madness in Shakespeare & co, led by the wonderful @bridget_escolme & Avi Mendelson, and a beautifully peaceful visit to Liverpool's metropolitan cathedral.
Anyone at #BSA2023#relocatingshakespeare make sure to drop me a message or use the submissions form if you’d like to write something for #TeachingShakespeare magazine- international submissions, teachers of all stages and ages & those ‘relocated’ outside the ‘classroom’ welcome!
