Shakespeare Live! was a star studded show which marked 400 years since the death of the Bard. It was hosted by David Tennant and Catherine Tate which was screened live from the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford- upon- Avon. The live show was broadcast on BBC2 plus shown in certain cinemas. Included in the show were scenes from various plays as well as music, opera and ballet, all with a Shakespeare influence.

The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall also attended this unique event.

Alex as Orlando and Pippa Nixon as Rosalind  performed an adaptation of Act IV Scene 1 from their 2013 production of As You Like It. It was wonderful to see them both reunited on stage again.

If you missed Shakespeare Live! or just want to relive it all again, it is now on iplayer.
