Welcome to On the Radar, where we preview up-and-coming arts events to mark your calendar for. This weekend, a trip to England to see authentic reenactments of Shakespeare's most popular works might not be in the budget (But who knows? Hold onto that lotto ticket.)
Fortunately for those of us who are more comfortable with the TV set than of the jet set crowd, you don't need a private plane to catch All's Well That Ends Well, the Bard’s tragi-comedy about the cunning Helena and her ne’er do well hubby, Bertram. It’s broadcast live from the UK's historic National Theatre to theaters around the world. No silver spoon necessary to enjoy this classic — just the silver screen.
