Among the actors taking part in the event are Gwyneth Paltrow and Joseph Fiennes, performing a scene from Romeo and Juliet — as they did in the film "Shakespeare in Love." Paul Scofield and Timothy West will perform from The Tempest. Another star taking part will be Dame Diana Rigg.
The Prince's Trust was created by the Prince of Wales, who will be present at the Globe, both for the show and for a (£300 a head) banquet afterwards.
