[edit]=20 History and Geography

Stratford has Anglo-Saxon = origins, and=20 grew up as a market town in medieval times. The = name is a=20 fusion of the Old English = str=C7=A3t,=20 meaning "street", and ford.

Stratford is also close to the Cotswolds, with Chipping = Campden=20 10 miles (16 km) to the south. As a major sheep producing area = (William Shakespeare's father, John = Shakespeare,=20 bought and sold sheep's wool illegally) the Cotswolds, up until the = latter part=20 of the 19th century, regarded Stratford as one of its main centres for = the=20 slaughter, marketing, and distribution of sheep and wool. As a consequence = Stratford=20 also became a centre for tanning during the = 15th=E2=80=9317th=20 centuries.

Should a mass German = invasion have=20 occurred during World War II, the = city was=20 to become the temporary seat of Parliament, = and host=20 many state servants.^{[citation =

[edit]=20 Theatres

The first real theatre in Stratford was a temporary wooden affair = built in=20 1769 by the actor David Garrick = for his Jubilee=20 Celebrations of that year to mark Shakespeare's birthday. The theatre, = built not=20 far from the site of the present Royal = Shakespeare=20 Theatre, was almost washed away in two days of torrential rain that = resulted=20 in terrible flooding.

A small theatre known as The Royal Shakespeare Rooms was built in the = gardens=20 of Shakespeare's New Place home in = the early=20 19th century but became derelict by the 1860s.

To celebrate Shakespeare's 300th birthday in 1864 the brewer, Charles=20 Edward Flower, instigated the building of a temporary wooden = theatre, known=20 as the Tercentenary Theatre, which was built in a part of the brewer's = large=20 gardens on what is today the site of the new, and temporary, Courtyard=20 Theatre. After three months the Tercentenary Theatre was dismantled, = with=20 the timber used for house building purposes.

In the early 1870s Charles Flower gave several acres of riverside = land to the=20 local council on the understanding that a permanent theatre be built in = honour=20 of Shakespeare's memory, and by 1879 the first Shakes= peare=20 Memorial Theatre had been completed. It proved to be a huge success, = and by=20 the early 20th century was effectively being run by the actor/manager Frank = Benson,=20 later Sir Frank Benson.

The theatre burned down in 1926, with the then artistic director, William=20 Bridges-Adams, moving all productions to the local cinema.

An architectural competition was arranged to elicit designs for a new = theatre, with the winner, English architect Elisabeth = Scott,=20 creating what we see on the riverside today. The new theatre, adjoining = what was=20 left of the old theatre, was opened by the Prince of = Wales, later=20 Edward VIII, in = 1932.

The new theatre had many illustrious artistic directors, including = the actor=20 Anthony = Quayle.
