Carol Chillington Rutter is Professor of Shakespeare and Performance Studies at the University of Warwick and a National Teaching Fellow. A historian of the early modern stage, she also writes contemporary theatre history, using theatre archives and the material remains of performance.
Her books include Enter the Body: Women and Representation on Shakespeare's Stage and Shakespeare and Child's Play: Performing Lost Boys on Stage and Screen.
Her current project concerns Henry Wotton in Venice 1604-1610 ; with the help of archives she is writing a biography of this English ambassador — who took up his appointment to Venice just as King James I, who sent him, was settling down to watch a play called The Tragedy of Othello, the Moor of Venice.
These events are free of charge and available to the general public. Book early to avoid disappointment.
