First recorded performance of #RomeoAndJuliet: 1 March 1662, Lincoln's Inn Fields by the Duke's Company. Had certainly been performed by 1597 when the first quarto was published, but there are no surviving records before 1660. #Shakespeare #LegendaryWednesday #1stMarch
I recall a version of this story that I loved as a girl, The Wild Swans by Hans Christian Andersen about a princess who rescues her 11 brothers from a spell cast by an evil queen. The tale was first published on 2 October 1838. #FairyTaleTuesday https://t.co/NCVV4DFGO8
