Two years, 190,000 miles, 197 countries, one play. For the 450th anniversary of Shakespeare's birth the Globe Theatre in London undertook an unparalleled journey to share Hamlet with the entire world. The tour was the brainchild of Dominic Dromgoole, artistic director of the Globe, and in Hamlet Globe to Globe, Dromgoole takes readers along with him on this wildly ambitious expedition.

From performing in sweltering deserts, capital and remote cities, heaving marketplaces and on Pacific islands, and despite food poisoning in Mexico, the threat of ambush in Somaliland, an Ebola epidemic in West Africa, and political upheaval in Ukraine, the Globe's players tirelessly pushed on. They carried their own props, instruments, and costumes throughout the journey, and could construct an entire set in less than two hours. Dromgoole introduces this impressive cast of sturdy souls, recounting the highs and lows of their tour, paying witness to Shakespeare's power to transcend borders and bring people closer together.

Dromgoole also shows us the world through the prism of Shakespeare and why, in its mystery, it resonates so widely―how a sixteenth-century play can touch the lives of men and women in Sudan, citizens of Beijing, and Syrian refugees alike. Through the lens of this epic theatrical journey, Dromgoole gleans new insight into Shakespeare's masterpiece, exploring the play's history, its meaning, and its pleasures, and offering a dramatic and heartfelt testament to Shakespeare's enduring presence on the modern stage.

Nice bag, lots of pockets
I love the different sized pockets and the big ones in the middle. I also like that they are all zippered. I like the end pockets. Just the right size bag and the print is just as pretty as its picture!

Cloudmusic tote
Color: Blue Flowers in Black
I LOVE this bag! I bought it for use as a purse. I carry ALOT of stuff in my purse & after my Vera Bradley purse bit the dust, I couldn't find another one to replace it. This new purse is perfect! Nylon straps that aren't going to fray like the VB purse straps did,,, plenty of room for all my stuff,, infact more room than my old purse had. Made of nylon so it can be washed & the print is absolutely beautiful. I've already gotten many compliments on how pretty it is. It also came sooner than I was expecting it!

Functional Beauty!
Color: Mystery Blosoom
I am so happily surprised as to how beautiful this bag is. The quality is fantastic and it is true to the description. I got the Mystery Blossom that looks like a Midnight Beauty to me. It has all the pockets it describes and the side ones are great with elastic holding your bottle or whatever you may use them for very securely. so it is very functional. I know you would be happy to have one or morey ourself. it is very lightweight so you can put alot in it like a laptop or tablet without it weighing you down. You can use it as a shoulder/crossboday bag or carry like a tote bag. I just love it.
