The Shakespeare Series... Part 1: Gender
“You don’t have to be clever to understand Shakespeare, you just have to have a soul."
In the Shakespeare Series, leading scholars, directors and actors give their perspective on the key themes of Shakespeare’s plays. Together, they explore issues of theory, practice and performance, referencing historical context as well as recent productions of each text covered.
Professor Kate McLuskie, former Director of the Shakespeare Institute, leads two directors – Lucy Bailey and Phillip Breen – and two actors – Ray Fearon and Zoe Waites – in an in–depth discussion of gender with reference to Julius Caesar and As You Like It.
