Can we relate to Shakespeare’s plays, or is that just something someone told us we could do? Are you an actor and need a classical monologue for an audition? What do the women characters in Shakespeare’s plays tell us about his development as a playwright?

Join the visionary director, actor, and theatre practitioner Tina Packer as she delves into the world of Shakespeare's women! Explore the complexities, strengths, and nuances of the Bard's women characters as Tina discusses her embodied research, Women of Will, and shares her techniques for building a monologue performance. This in-person event, supported by the College of Humanities & the Arts’ Artistic Excellence Programming Grant, is a rare opportunity to learn from a renowned expert in Shakespeare performance and to deepen your understanding of these iconic characters.
