Shakespeare: The Man Who Pays The Rent

by Judi Dench

For the very first time, Judi Dench opens up about every Shakespearean role she has played in her seven-decade career, from Lady Macbeth and Titania to Ophelia and Cleopatra.

Here, she reveals her behind the scenes secrets; inviting us to share in her triumphs, disasters, and backstage shenanigans, all brightened by her mischievous sense of humour and striking honesty.

This is Judi's love letter to William Shakespeare – the man who pays the rent.
