Fun little history of the first Shakespeare festival held in the 18th century. It was primarily organized by famous English actor David Garrick and made Stratford-upon-Avon a tourist attraction. The story is less about Shakespeare and more about 18th century theatre culture, but it‘s a fun, quick read. I particularly enjoyed having to look up some words in the dictionary! Recommend for fans of literary and English history! 🎭🎟⛈
