Why people recommend it
Hamlet Globe to Globe by Dominic Dromgoole is a travel memoir and theatrical chronicle detailing an unprecedented two-year tour performing Shakespeare across nearly two hundred countries. Gilbert Cruz welcomed author Dominic Dromgoole on an episode of The Book Review to discuss this literary work. During the conversation, the host introduced the guest and highlighted the massive scale of the undertaking, which spanned roughly two years, covered 190,000 miles, and reached 197 countries for a single play. Dromgoole reflected on his writing process, drawing comparisons to his previous publication, Will and Me: How Shakespeare Took Over My Life, while expressing enthusiasm for the title of his newer release. Toward the conclusion of the interview, Cruz revisited the publication to remind listeners of the sweeping theatrical journey captured within its pages, encouraging audiences to explore the monumental global tour that brought the classic Elizabethan drama to diverse international audiences in corners of the world that had rarely or never hosted such productions before. The discussion offered a comprehensive look into the logistics, cultural exchanges, and personal reflections born from taking one of the most famous theatrical productions in history across the entire globe on an extraordinary adventure.
