Shakespeare’s Schoolroom & Guildhall
Shakespeare’s Schoolroom & Guildhall is renowned for being where the world’s greatest playwright attended school, but it also played an influential role in the life of his father and William’s own writing, all of which is revealed as part of the visitor experience.
Located in the heart of Stratford-upon-Avon, Shakespeare’s Schoolroom & Guildhall has been central to the fabric of town life for over 600 years. It still operates for part of its life today as a school, but since its restoration in 2016 has also been welcoming visitors from across the globe to discover its fascination for themselves. Standing in the very space where William Shakespeare went to school is a unique, spine tingling experience, as is the thought of the legacy that he would go on to create from this humble setting.
Tickets to Shakespeare’s Schoolroom & Guildhall go on sale from Monday 10 May 2021 and are priced at adult £10; concession £8; child (5-16) £6.50; family (2 adults and 2 children) £27; additional child with family ticket £4.50; under 5s free. Included in the price is an interactive lesson in the Tudor schoolroom where William Shakespeare was taught.
Tickets can be booked via: shakespearesschoolroom.org
Master Thomas Jenkins Makes Edinburgh Fringe debut: Shakespeare’s Schoolroom & Guildhall will be taking part in this year’s iconic Edinburgh Fringe Festival; which is back in 2021 with an amazing line up of events taking place both on location in Edinburgh and digitally from locations around the globe to give a whole new look and feel to the world’s largest arts festival.
People will find themselves enjoying an experience that combines theatrics with interactives. At its heart the hour long, family friendly event will introduce the character Master Thomas Jenkins, the School Master of young William Shakespeare, and his trusty Puck. There will be an interactive Tudor lesson, a chance to find out more about the stories of this building, a Q&A session and plenty of thrills and spills along the way.
Tickets for Shakespeare’s Schoolroom Live are priced from £5 and bookable in advance here. There are dates available throughout August, with each session starting at 5:30pm and lasting for an hour. The recommended age is 8+.

Shakespeares Birthday Celebrations 2021
2021 Virtual Programme
The traditional Birthday Celebrations enables Stratford-upon-Avon to extend a hand of cultural friendship to many national and international visitors who come to join in the festivities each year. Unfortunately, the Covid-19 pandemic has once again prevented the community from physically staging the 2021 event.
However, we are confident that by next year we will be able to celebrate his 458th birthday in style, but all is not lost for this year. The Town and District Councils have collaborated with many key stakeholders in the town to enable this virtual Birthday Celebrations to be staged.
The tribute was aired on Friday 23 April but can still be accessed via the link www.shakespeares-birthday.uk
