Wednesday Walks
SEPTEMBER - OCTOBER, 2024
Join us on the first Wednesday of each month where we will introduce you to hidden corners of London and tell you some of London's best stories.
There is no need to book for these tours, just turn up and pay the guide £15 (new price) on the day. It would, however, help the guide if you could email in advance if you expect to attend - also let us know if you change your mind!

SHAKESPEARE ACT 1 - SHOREDITCH
Your guide: Jenni Bowley
Meeting point: Shoreditch overground station
Act 1 follows Shakespeare’s early life in London. We'll find out why he was in Shoreditch, who he was working with - and who his main competitors were! We'll visit the site of The Theatre (most associated with early career) and locate The Curtain Theatre where a new museum dedicated to Shakespeare is due to open following years of archaeological investigation. We'll then walk along the route that Shakespeare would have taken into the City to London Bridge and the many theatres of Southwark.
