The Sassy Shakespeare

Looking at Shakespeare’s female characters who were traditionally played by men. What burden does this history weigh on contemporary women portraying these characters? In the course of the discussion with our guests from "Shakespeare's Women", we hope to uncover new understanding of the Bard’s plays--Hamlet, Romeo & Juliet, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Macbeth, A Winter’s Tale and more.
