Place and times of plays to be reviewed for extra credit:

Actor’s Shakespeare Project:  Medea, February 8-March 4              Review due March 9

Actor’s Shakespeare Project:  Troilus & Cressida, April 25-May.  Review Due with Final Exam

Salem State University:  Twelfth Night, April 18-April 29           Review Due with Final Exam         


NB:  ONLY these performances will count toward the extra credit.

NB:  We will not be reading these plays this semester.  You will have to read them before attending in order to write the review--which requires you to comment on how seeing a live performance affected your understanding based on your reading of the play.
