Stratford's hidden theatrical histories
Professor Abigail Rokison-Woodall talks about her research into theatrical projects that emerged in the 1960s and 70s at the RSC and which shaped its future.
This inaugural lecture features Abigail’s work with Bafta and Emmy-award winning director Andrew Smith and discusses their attempts to track down and record the memories of those who participated in ventures including Actors’ Commando, Theatregoround, The Stratford Roundhouse and the filming of Peter Hall’s 1969 A Midsummer Night’s Dream , in order to create a series of ‘Hidden Histories’ documentary films.
