The Great Adapter: William Shakespeare Nov 22, 2022

Show notes

William Shakespeare is one of the best-known and most challenged figures in history. He transcends any era. In the present day, his plays continue to be shared with young minds throughout our school districts. But this talented man has had his authenticity questioned for centuries.

In this episode, Heather Darsie chats with author and freelance researcher Dennis McCarthy about the premise of his book Thomas North: The Original Author of Shakespeare's Plays. Learn about the resources McCarthy used to investigate the case and what the results showed him. You might be surprised by how deep Heather digs into this conversation.
