Class Notes
From the instructor: In summertime versions of the course, we read plays in production at Santa Cruz Shakespeare and, pending the availability of funding, attend performances.
The readings for summer 2024 are Hamlet and As You Like It. Written at the midpoint of Shakespeare's career, and within about a year of each other, these plays could be described as his first great tragedy and his last great comedy. We'll read them closely and consider what Shakespeare is learning about his artform, character, and language as he passes from one dramatic genre to another.
No prior knowledge of Shakespeare's work is necessary. All are welcome.
