| Stratford-on-Avon, as we all know, has
only one industry--William Shakespeare--but there are two distinctly separate

which presents superb productions of the plays at the Shakespeare Memorial
Theatre on the Avon. And there are the townsfolk who largely live off the
tourists who come, not to see the plays, but to look at Anne Hathaway’s Cottage,
Shakespeare’s birthplace and the other sights. The worthy residents of Stratford doubt that the theatre adds a penny to their revenue. They frankly dislike the RSC’s actors ,them with their long hair and beards and sandals and noisiness. It’s all deliciously ironic when you consider that Shakespeare, who earns their living, was himself an actor(with a beard)and did his share of noise-making.
