THE SHAKESPEARE BOOK CLUB

reading list image - LightboxExplore the fascinating universe of Shakespeare’s canon in this engaging, popular, annual offering from The Shakespeare Theatre.

Ideal for both Bard-ophiles and Shakespeare-novices alike, these read-aloud sessions delve into the compelling characters, conflicts, and universal truths that have made Shakespeare the object of global fascination for over four centuries.

Spring Series - Into the Woods

 Wednesdays, April 3rd - May 8th, 7:00pm - 9:30pm, Zoom

As one of the most iconic settings in fairytales, ancient mythology, and all manner of literary traditions, the Woods remove us from the safety and familiarity of civilization. In a darkened forest, anything can happen as heroes and heroines face mysterious forces, dangerous encounters, and magical experiences that ultimately alter the course of their stories and even their lives.

This spring, join our Shakespeare Book Club as we set forth into the Forest of Arden with one of Shakespeare’s most famed heroines in As You Like It, wander the Welsh woodlands in Shakespeare’s rarely produced fairytale, Cymbeline, and dance with the devil in the woods of 17th century Salem in Arthur Miller's The Crucible.
