Shakespeare's Schoolroom & Guildhall Opens to the Public on 23 April to Mark 400th Anniversary of World's Greatest Playwright
The transformation of in Stratford-upon- Avon into an internationally significant visitor attraction has been made possible thanks to a £1.8million restoration of the Grade I listed 15 century building. The Schoolroom will offer an immersive and authentic experience that allows the atmosphere of this medieval building to engage people in its unique story, including its important role in the town's civic society for nearly 600 years.
As one of the rarely seen places of Shakespeare's early life, the opening will bring a new dimension to the Stratford experience, giving visitors a glimpse of his formative years rarely explored by the public at large, shedding light on his life as a schoolboy and showing how his schooling, coupled with the opportunity to see the country's finest actors performing in the Guildhall, inspired him to become the world's greatest playwright.
Visitors will be invited to step into the shoes of young William, to sit in the very room he sat in as a pupil and take part in a live Tudor lesson with a 'Master', all filled with the drama, excitement and fun worthy of Shakespeare's legacy.
