Shakespeare was gay claims RSC director | Daily Mail Online
Shakespeare was gay claims RSC director who accuses Victorian academics of covering up the bard's homosexuality
Greg Doran claimed that bard's 'outsider' perspective offered clues
He added that 126 of Shakespeare's 154 sonnets are addressed to men
Mr Doran said Victorian scholars were 'embarrassed' by Shakespeare's sexuality
They thought it wasn't 'kosher' for a national literary hero to male 'affectations'
Speaking on BBC Radio 4's Today programme, Mr Doran said: 'I guess a growing understanding of Shakespeare as I have worked with him over the many years that I have, makes me realise that his perspective is very possibly that of an outsider.
'It allows him to get inside the soul of a black general, a Venetian jew, an Egyptian queen or whatever and perhaps that outsider perspective has something to do with his sexuality.'Tags: None
