Please join us for an author talk featuring Dr. Katherine Steele Brokaw. 

This talk will discuss Dr. Brokaw’s recent book, Shakespeare and Community Performance. The book explores how productions of Shakespearean plays create meaning in specific communities, with special attention to issues of access, adaptation, and activism. The book analyzes performances put on by community theatres and grassroots companies, and in applied drama projects, and explores why different communities perform Shakespeare while it explores the challenges, opportunities and triumphs that accompany the productions.

We will have a raffle during the event to give away two copies of the book.
