Some interesting performances with historical interest

Dear members,

I am writing to share with you two performances that history lovers like you may find interesting:

• The Merchant of Venice set in 1936 and touring before coming to London: https://stagedoorapp.com/watford-palace-theatre/the-merchant-of-venice-1936?p=13811

• A song cycle based on the life of the great medieval Spanish poet, Yehudah Ha-levi, at King's Place, just one performance: https://www.kingsplace.co.uk/whats-on/classical/the-third-sea/

Also, please mar your diaries, Friday 19 May 2023, afternoon, a lecture by Professor John Tolan, introducing his new history of the Jews in medieval England. More information to come.

Wishing you a good week.

Miri Rubin, President of the JHSE
