Globe commissions female playwright
For the first time in its 400-year history, Shakespeare's Globe Theatre has commissioned a play written by a woman.
Nell Leyshon, who regularly writes plays for radio and won the 2005 Evening Standard Most Promising Playwright Award for Comfort Me With Apples, will have her work Bedlam staged at the historic London landmark as part of its 2010 theatre season.
