From November 6-8, our Shakespeare and Performance Master of Letters students will gather for this semester's Thesis Festival! 🎭 Check out @MBU_Shakespeare to learn more about our Shakespeare & Performance students and their thesis topics! #thesisfest22
We are back at it again! This morning's presentations have covered cutting H5 as an epic, using devising for Shakespeare, modern use of regional accents on the Shakespearean stage, the effects of Shakespeare on Italian opera, and redefining the way we categorize Shax's plays.
Tonight begins our annual #ThesisFest! The session spans from culinary practices of EM kitchens, to La Frontera as a lens to explore the romance genre, to the exploration in Shakespeare's political thrillers, to tracking how violence appears in Shax's work over his career!
I'm sure we've got some folks in our network with tips and tricks! Let's hear 'em!
