DISCOVER SHAKESPEARE
Curiosity. What was it that Shakespeare tapped into? Here are the ways that you and students of ALL ages can dive deeper with SW SHAKES. Join us for performances, seminars, and talkback sessions. Let us come to you, or study with us to discover how learning more about "the Bard" can teach us about ourselves.
