Sooooo... we have always (well, not we as in Owen and Lisa Ann, but we as in Shakespeare scholars across the centuries) suspected that William Shakespeare owned property in London somewhere in the Blackfriars area. And in fact, there is a plaque that says just that on the side on an office building there!

But!!!!! Thanks to Lucy Munro, Professor of Shakespeare and Early Modern Literature at King's College London, we now know that he absolutely DID purchase a property in Blackfriars on March 10, 1613!!!!  She stumbled upon the 17th C deed proving that purchase - it's exhilarating!!!!  Thanks, Lucy!!!

Join us as we discuss what this means to us and what it may have meant for Will!!!
