Shakespeare Returns to the Arts Consortium of Carver County’s Art Center

Hamlet is the play.  The 4-week class will meet on Tuesday mornings.  The tragedy is the core of the class, but, as an introduction, it includes a capsulized history of drama and the worldview as the Middle Ages tumbled into the Renaissance. And, of course, we explore the life of William Shakespeare: the man, the playwright, the poet and the culture of the Elizabethan Era.

Contributing to the depth of the study, two local scholars will be guest speakers – Walter Canon, PhD in Shakespeare and Joyce Sutphen, PhD in the Renaissance.
