The Museum is proud to feature in the forthcoming film Bill – a William Shakespeare comedy by the BBC’s award-winning Horrible Histories team and Koch Media.
This fun film covers Shakespeare’s ‘lost years’ as he leaves his family to pursue his dreams in London, with a cast including Mathew Baynton, Simon Farnaby, Martha Howe-Douglas, Jim Howick, Laurence Rickard and Ben Willbond.
The comedy opens in UK cinemas on 18 September 2015 and you can watch the Bill trailer on YouTube, where the Museum’s Market Square features in the opening sequence.
