Workshops for Adults

Shakespeare Off the Page
The nerdy-coolest book club / Shakespeare geek session returns with another of our good old let’s-pop-the-hood-on-this-and-see-how-it-works session, this time with Twelfth Night (which is also a part of the Kentucky Shakespeare summer 2022 season) in all its prose-heavy, gender-fluid, yellow-stockinged glory.
February 19 & 26, 2022
1:00-4:00pm
The play is available in various forms via CarmichaelsBookstore.com.
Now, for some reading Shakespeare brings back nightmares of that one ex-nun/former coach who taught Freshman English. But digging into these plays and treating them like the playscripts they are can be a lot of grown-up fun once you unlock some of the tricky bits in a casual, snack’n’chat, no-test-on-the-reading setting. So resident Kentucky Shakespeare actor/dramaturg (pronounced: professional nerd) Gregory Maupin will lead a group through these sessions that can help you get the most out of reading Shakespeare on your own, before a show/movie, or with a group of other weirdos who enjoy this kind of thing, too*.
*This is primarily a series aimed at normal, decent people, but actors are not unwelcome.
Here’s what some past participants had to say:
“Greg knows WAY too much to fit into 3 or 4 sessions, but…I am jazzed about further DIY exploration.”
- Schedule: February 19 & 26, 1:00pm-4:00pm
- Price: $60 for two-session workshop
