This week’s Did Shakespeare comes to you from a presentation I did for Heather Teysko’s Tudor Summit September 2018. I was graciously asked to speak on Shakespeare at The Tudor Summit and I shared with them about Shakespeare’s involvement in the Essex Rebellion. This video is part of the presentation. To view the entire presentation, you will need to register to be part of the Tudor Summit 2018 at this link:
The presentation was done live, and is now over, but you can still register to get videos of the presentations as well as access to the Facebook group.
