Somewhat embarrassingly for an English teacher, I have never been to Stratford to watch any Shakespeare before but Alison and I went up this weekend and watched a production of a play I didn't know anything about at all, Coriolanus.

We are planning to go up again soon to watch a performance of King Lear in May.
