We're sharing an episode of Where There’s a Will, which searches for the surprising places Shakespeare shows up outside the theater. Host Barry Edelstein asks what is it about Shakespeare that’s given him a continuous afterlife in all sorts of unexpected ways? You’ll hear Shakespeare doing rehabilitative work in a maximum security prison, in the mouths of U.S. presidents, and even at the center of a deadly riot in New York City. In this preview, Barry meets children with a very special relationship to the Bard: autistic kids, who discover ways to express themselves through a writer from 400 years ago.
