SUMMARY:Love\, Loss and Shakespeare:  An Evening in Conversation with Sir Gregory Doran
DESCRIPTION:After the death of his husband\, Sir Antony Sher\, Sir Gregory Doran stepped down from his role as Artistic Director of the Royal Shakespeare Company. In the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s First Folio\, and inspired by the surprising history of the company’s own copy\, he set out to see how many of these important volumes he could find. Sir Gregory’s book\, Walking Shadow: Love\, Loss and Shakespeare (Bloomsbury)\, relives the months leading up to Sher’s death\, told via the two men’s raw and loving diaries\, and maps Doran’s quest to track down more than 200 First Folios worldwide – over 90 percent of all the surviving copies. The book is a poignant and panoramic story of love\, loss and the ways in which Shakespeare can become a source of healing. \nSir Gregory Doran has been described as “one of the great Shakespearians of his generation” (The Sunday Times). \nGreg’s book My Shakespeare: A Director’s Journey Through the First Folio was published in 2024 and his latest book Walking Shadow is published by Bloomsbury this April. \nDr Chris Laoutaris is a Shakespeare scholar\, biographer and Associate Professor at The Shakespeare Institute (University of Birmingham). \nHe is the author of Shakespeare’s Book: The Intertwined Lives Behind the First Folio (William Collins) which tells the story of the creation of the 1623 First Folio\, and which made several book of the year lists\, including BBC History Magazine\, BBC Radio 4 Front Row and Australian Book Review\, and was a Financial Times Best Summer Book. \nThere will be an exhibition of Shakespeare-related documents from the Stationers’ archives. \nTickets:\n£35 In-person (lecture\, wine\, soft drinks & sandwiches) \nDrinks reception in the Court Room before going into the Hall.

SUMMARY:Putting London on the Map
DESCRIPTION:History In The Hall – Livery Committee Event \nMapping London: Creative Ways To Explore History \nFor over 20 years\, Matt Brown has been exploring and writing about London. But he’s also been mapping it. In this talk\, Matt will describe how maps can provide fresh insights into the city’s history and culture: from a retrospective map of Anglo-Saxon London\, to a complete map of every location mentioned in Dickens’s novels\, to his new best-selling book about the Boroughs of London. He’ll also reveal what he’s learned about the capital by spending hundreds of hours colouring in the John Rocque map of 1746. \nBiography \nMatt Brown is editor-at-large of Londonist.com\, and the main contributor to Londonist: Time Machine\, a newsletter about the history of London. In his 20 years as a ‘professional London explorer’\, Matt has waded along the buried River Fleet (twice)\, spent the night in a ‘haunted’ plague pit\, crawled through the little-known tunnel beneath the deck of London Bridge\, and walked along the tracks beneath Leicester Square at 2am. Matt is also author of 13 books\, including London Night and Day (2015)\, Everything You Know About London Is Wrong (2016)\, the bestselling/award-winning Atlas of Imagined Places (2021) and its sequel Atlas of Imagined Cities (2023). His latest book The Boroughs of London (2025) explores the history and peculiarities of London’s 32 boroughs. \nMatt particularly enjoys Q&A\, and invites you to come armed with any “I’ve always wondered…” questions about London (map-related or otherwise). \nMatt will be signing copies of his fascinating new book after the lecture. \nThe evening is open to members and their guests. Tickets cost £25 and include wine\, soft drinks and nibbles. Space is limited to 50 people so early booking is essential. \nThe event will also be streamed live on YouTube around the world! The code for the one-hour stream costs £10 and this is open to anyone. \nTickets:\n£25 includes the lecture\, wine\, soft drinks and nibbles\n£10 online / virtual only \nSchedule:\n6.30 PM Drinks reception\n7.00 PM Lecture begins in 3rd Floor Meeting Rooms\n7.50 PM Q&A\n8.00 PM Drinks& Nibbles\n8.30 PM Event Ends \nDress code: Smart Casual
