Shakespeare’s plays are full of extraordinary women: Portia, Cleopatra, Lady Macbeth, Beatrice, Juliet, Kate, Ophelia – the list goes on and on. We will explore several of these unique characters by reading scenes from the plays, watching recorded famous performances, and exploring other art inspired by the characters. Each class period will be devoted to at least two characters as we discover what is central to Shakespeare’s women.
