We are so lucky to have the American Shakespeare Center just a few miles down I-81. In this class, gain historical and contemporary context for each of the plays in ASC’s current season lineup! Take advantage of this regional treasure! Participants will come away from our meetings with more knowledge and insight about each play and the artists behind each production. Topics covered in each interactive discussion-based class will include: the history of the play and its author(s), the play’s performance history, behind the scenes insights into our current production, and how current events and themes are addressed in ASC productions.

Then follow up this class with Dr. Kellogg’s ”Merely Players” where you’ll select a play from the fall’s lineup, read it together as a class and then attend a show!
