Upstart Crows of Santa Fe present

Panel Discussion of Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice

The discussion precedes performances at The Swan Theater by Upstart Crows of Santa Fe and is designed to address the challenges of producing this play which raises issues of racism, sexism, and antisemitism that are painfully relevant in our times.

The panel includes John Andrews, editor, educator, and founder of The Shakespeare Guild; Rabbi Neil Amswych, of Temple Beth Shalom; Robin Williams, dramaturg and co-founder of the International Shakespeare Center; Caryl Farkas, Director of Upstart Crows of Santa Fe; and members of the Upstart Crows. Three casts of Crows will perform brief scene excerpts from the play.

The event is FREE and open to the public.
