VAULT Festival back in 2014, that he would make history... but thanks to an anonymous Bitcoin donation on Crowdfunder, that's exactly what happened.

Review: OTHELLO at Shakespeare’s Globe
By Stuart King Saturday, August 4 2018, 07:43
Plays about jealousy, envy, passion and amorous lust, must have seemed a-dime-a-dozen in Shakespeare’s day.
