Workshops for Adults
Shakespeare Off the Page
The nerdy-coolest book club / Shakespeare geek session returns with another session on A Midsummer Night’s Dream, this time to watch a heaping helping of different adaptations and screen versions to get all our Pucks in a row before coming to watch in Central Park this summer. Join us, won’t you?
The play is available in various forms via CarmichaelsBookstore and Louisville Free Public Library
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: Saturdays, April 8 & 15 1:00-4:00pm
- Price: $60 for two-session workshop
