ISC Santa Fe presents

The Greek Heritage of Shakespeare’s Plays

Back by popular demand, an evening talk with scholar and archaeologist Duane W. Roller. Join us for a fascinating evening where classical scholar Roller will take us on a deep dive into the Greek roots of many of Shakespeare's Plays.

This summer ISC Santa Fe is producing The Winter's Tale and Pericles, Santa Fe Classic Theater is producing The Comedy of Errors, and Upstart Crows are producing A Midsummer Night's Dream. All of these plays have classical roots that will be illuminated during this talk!
