This year marks the 400th anniversary of the death of William Shakespeare. St. Ambrose and the College of Arts and Sciences is celebrating the Bard's long-lasting legacy by building the 2016-2017 academic project theme around his works.
The Theatre Department is staging three Shakespearean productions at the Galvin Fine Arts Center, beginning with The Tempest in October. A graphic novel rendition of The Tempest also is serving as the New Student Seminar First Book selection this year.
Other Shakespearean stage productions will include The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) [Revised] in February and Richard III in April. In March, actors from the London stage will perform Romeo and Juliet.
Numerous lectures, art exhibitions, conferences, symposiums and musical performances throughout the year also will focus on the academic project theme.
