Four years ago today was the very first #ShakespeareSunday!
Started by my good friends, @HollowCrownFans, the #ShakespeareSunday tag now regularly trends on Twitter every Sunday, and brings Shakespeare related joy to the world!
Some weekends the theme is chosen by a special guest, and in the past this has included Tom Hiddleston, who also appeared in a PBS video speaking about the magnificence of #ShakespeareSunday!
In 2014, on the day of the Olivier Awards, I was the Guest Host on @HollowCrownFans of #ShakespeareSunday
