Shakespeare s Globe has announced that Professor Farah Karim-Cooper and Lucy Cuthbertson have been confirmed as Co-Directors of Education, leading the largest education department in a theatre in the country. Lucy and Farah were joint interim leaders throughout the Globe s year of closure, creating over 600 events and courses, and supporting the nation s sudden critical need for quality home learning.
Farah and Lucy take on the position after Patrick Spotiswoode, who served as the Director and Founder of Globe Education for 37 years, confirmed his retirement last summer. Starting 14 years before the completion of the Globe, Patrick was one of a small team dedicated to keeping alive Sam Wanamaker s dream of a reconstructed Globe theatre at the heart of an educational and artistic centre in Southwark.
