After the death from cancer of his husband, Antony Sher, Greg Doran stepped down from his role as artistic director of the Royal Shakespeare Company. In the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's First Folio, and inspired by the surprising history of the company's own copy, he set out to see how many of these important volumes he could find. 'Walking Shadow' relives the months leading up to Sher's death, told via the two men's raw and loving diaries, and maps Doran's quest to track down folios worldwide. A compelling blend of memoir, travelogue and investigation, 'Walking Shadow' sheds new light on the past while Doran himself emerges from the darkness of loss.
