Led by Shakespeare aficionado Declan McHugh - a professional actor and dedicated researcher for over 40 years - this entertaining tour will take you to the places that played a significant role in Shakespeare's life north of the Thames.
Starting outside Blackfriars station, Declan will bring the Bard's world to life by performing some of his most memorable speeches and sonnets in the places where he lived and worked.
