To celebrate the 175th birthday of Newcastle’s Theatre Royal in 2012, the Laing is hosting an exhibition which explores how Shakespeare has inspired artists for centuries.

Displaying paintings, prints and objects from Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums' collections, visitors young and old will recognise characters from Shakespeare’s best-known plays such as Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, The Merchant of Venice and much more.
