A YouTuber and professional actor has raised almost $100,000 (£82,000) for charity in three days by reading the complete works of
Shakespeare live online.
PhilosophyTube founder Olly Thorne, 26, began his ambitious fundraising feat on Friday, admitting it would be “gruelling and take several days.”
Taking place 24 hours a day, the “Shakespeare marathon” has so far featured full renditions of favourites including Macbeth, A Midsummer Night’s Dream and The Merchant of Venice, with other big titles still to come.
Olly’s current aim is to hit $100,000 in donations, which will go to emotional support charity
Samaritans.
