Black Tie International:
Shakespeare’s Imagery


 

Julie Taymor

 


Tony Award winning director and Academy Award nominee
JULIE TAYMOR

Joins the third Shakespeare Talks event of the Shakespeare Society’s Season “Shakespeare’s Imagery” on February 25

Event also features previously announced Folger Shakespeare Library

Director MICHAEL WITMORE




The Shakespeare Society continues its 2012-2013 season with a third Shakespeare Talks event, “Shakespeare’s Imagery.” This event will feature a lively conversation and audience Q&A session with Director of the Folger Shakespeare Library Michael Witmore and visionary stage and screen director Julie Taymor for a fascinating conversation about Shakespeare's imagery - both the poetic figures within the characters' language and the striking and powerful stage pictures created in live performance. Complimentary wine will be served afterwards.

Shakespeare Talks is a new series of intimate events, aimed at opening up the conversation about Shakespeare with the audience and colleagues in the theatrical, academic, and educational fields. A more interactive evening, the onstage conversations will lead to a question and answer session with the audience and feature a post show reception with the participants. The Shakespeare Talks series is in partnership with The Pearl Theatre Company.

The Shakespeare Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to increasing the enjoyment, understanding, and appreciation of William Shakespeare’s works through performance, commentary, and educational activities. A portion of the Society’s membership dollars is used to support educational activities in New York City Schools. This season, the Shakespeare Society enters its sixth year of partnering with the Hunts Points Alliance for Children on the Children’s Shakespeare Ensemble, which culminates with a performance in the spring. Shakespeare in Schools is the Society’s education program that brings Teaching Artists into New York City pubic schools to integrate students’ study of Shakespeare with performance. The newly formed Shakespeare Roundtable invites educators from across the city to come together and share ideas and pool resources, as well as seek new ways to serve students and teachers in the city.

Shakespeare Society Members support the organization’s educational activities while enjoying a range of benefits, including complimentary tickets to all 5 Major Evening Events, discount and/or priority bookings to local Shakespeare productions, and access to Society exclusive classes.
