British thespian Simon Callow brings to life Shakespeare's unforgettable characters and the man behind the history in this triumphant new play, Being Shakespeare.

After taking the Edinburgh Festival by storm and following a hugely successful national tour, Callow's magnificent performance will be travelling to Chicago after New York in a strictly limited spring season.

Presented as part of CST's World's Stage, this unique portrait of the Bard follows Callow's major international success The Mystery of Charles Dickens (Chicago Shakespeare Theater, Broadway and London?s West End) in addition to memorable film roles including Shakespeare in Love, Four Weddings and a Funeral, and A Room with a View.
