There are many sacred places of pilgrimage in the Shakespeare world, and this 30 Days of Shakespeare pick is one of the best.
You can read all about my adventures at the Folger in 2016 in this series of comics. I have a special place in my heart for the Folger, since it was there that I had my first speaking event as Good Tickle Brain, organized by my future pocket dramaturg and collaborator Kate Pitt. It felt so special to be invited into this sanctum sanctorum of Shakespearean artifacts with open arms. Plus... did I mention.... I GOT TO BOOP A FOLIO??
