To celebrate Shakespeare’s birthday a special episode with guest Colin David Reese, actor, author and performer of ‘Shakespeare Unbound’, a one man play about the creation of the First Folio Edition of Shakespeare’s plays, which was published 400 years ago this year.

David spoke to me previously (see bonus episode ‘Shakespeare Unbound’) about his play and the creation of the first folio and he makes a welcome return here to further discuss our continuing fascination with Shakespeare, how we view his genius, and what the truth really is behind that image.
