Dame Harriet Walter is one of Britain's most esteemed Shakespearean actors. Now, having played most of Shakespeare's female characters, audaciously she lets them speak their minds.

With new parts for thirty of Shakespeare’s female characters, written in Shakespearean verse and prose, Harriet Walter goes between the lines of the plays to let us hear what she imagines these women were really thinking.

Here's what Gertrude longed to say; why Lady Macbeth felt she should be King; how Juliet's nurse bemoaned her loss and what Cleopatra's handmaidens really thought of her. Ophelia surprises us, Olivia surprises herself and Miranda glimpses the future.
