Promenade performance looks at an eccentric Shakespeare scholar
Meet James Orchard Halliwell-Phillipps, 19th-century joker and world-renowned Shakespearean scholar who lived on the outskirts of Brighton.
There in his ‘rustic wigwam’ (a series of conjoined sheds), he obsessively curated a huge hoard of Shakespearean rarities.
Marking the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death, artist Marc Rees has devised a unique promenade performance through Roedale Allotments, close to the site of this eccentric recluse’s former home.
