Zoƫ pictured laying Shakespeare's Globe's foundations in 1995

2 April 2016 17:57

In celebration of Museum Week (28 March Ā– 3 April), an international cultural event, Shakespeare's Globe has delved into its archives and shared some very special photos with readers of its blog.

Two of the photos, which illustrate a blog article about the theatre's beginnings, show both Zoƫ and Judi Dench helping to lay the foundations almost exactly twenty-one years ago, on 29 April 1995. The other, earlier images feature Zoƫ's father, Sam Wanamaker, who spearheaded the construction of The Globe on London's South Bank.

The photos provide a fascinating glimpse into the history of what has become a world-renowned institution.

Thanks to Karoline for making me aware of the photos.
