5/10/2010 Bingo Closes Today @ Chichester

Patrick Stewart is currently starring in Chichester Festival's Minerva Theatre new production of Edward Bond's 1973 play Bingo, which runs until May 22, 2010. Bingo: Scenes of Death and Money is a fictional account of the retired William Shakespeare at his Warwickshire home in 1615 and 1616, suffering pangs of conscience in part because he signed a contract which protected his landholdings, on the condition that he would not interfere with an enclosure of common lands that would hurt the local peasant farmers.
