Scavengers - paintings and poems in response to The Plays of Shakespeare

Scavengers is a collection of 20 poems and paintings by the poet Kiran Millwood Hargrave and the painter Ton de Freston. The works, some of which will be on display throughout the Festival at the Shakespeare Centre, respond on different degrees to the plays of Shakespeare, and were unveiled at the Cambridge Shakespeare Conference in September 2011. Tom and Kiran will be discussing how they approached the project, and reading some of the poems.
‘Extraordinarily original…immediate and totally contemporary,’ Sir Trevor Nunn
