The programme was run by the British Council and the GREAT Britain campaign and celebrated Shakespeare as a playwright for all people and all nations. More than 140 countries took part in the festivities, with people experiencing Shakespeare through film screenings, exhibitions, performances and in schools, alongside a programme of unique online collaborations.
Online resources produced as part of Shakespeare Lives remain available. Resources include innovative short films inspired by Shakespeare, digital platforms that allow you to “remix” the plays, and educational resources for schools and English language learners of all ages, in the UK and around the world.
