FALL BOOK CLUB SESSIONS
We have TWO new Book Clubs headed your way. In September and October we will be reading and discussing Measure for Measure. In November we’ll explore Troilus and Cressida together. Book Clubs are fun, comfortable gatherings currently held on Zoom.
SHAKESPEARE AND THE SUFFRAGISTS
As we mark 100 years since the passage of the 19th amendment, Shakespeare Dallas explores how Shakespeare’s works influenced the fight.
Led by Associate Artistic Director Jenni Stewart, Shakespeare and the Suffragists is a new virtual performance project that examines Shakespeare’s more feminist texts and how they have been interpreted and reinterpreted over time. This provocative work will be available for streaming in mid-October. Pre-register now and a link to access the content will be emailed beginning October 15.
WILL ON THE WEB
Will on the Web is our expanded virtual classroom, offering comprehensive learning tools covering 6 of Shakespeare’s greatest plays.
Each play has four separate learning blocks: Plot, History, Text Analysis, and Performance and two separate tracks: Grades 2 though 5 and Grades 6 through 12.
CIRCO METROPOLIS
Laughter League, along with Shakespeare Dallas, presents Circo Metropolis, a pop-up circus experience under the bright blue Texas skies. The all-star cast will feature renowned speed juggler Dario Vasquez, circus skills phenoms Kelli and Julio Ramazini, Magic Mike Williams, aerialists Circus2Wins, slack wire artist Chet Monday and songbird Lily Monday.
Performances are Saturday and Sunday on October 10-11 and October 17-18 at 1:30 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. Tickets are $15 each or $50 for a family four-pack.
