Some of Shakespeare’s greatest parts were written for women: Ophelia, Juliet, and Cleopatra. Join Shannon Kelley, Ph.D., director of Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, and associate professor of English, and her college students at Fairfield University for an immersive audience workshop focused on these three women. Together and in small groups we will read dialogue, workshop scenes, and consider different viewpoints on the power, agency, and strength of these famous women. All ages are welcome.
