Page to Stage: Hamlet

Page to Stage is a 45-minute adult enrichment presentation followed by a 15-minute Q&A session. We’ll utilize text from the Q1, Q2 and F versions of Hamlet to examine the publishing process during Shakespeare’s time, how that process influenced what is universally accepted today as the work of William Shakespeare, and the ongoing role of the modern editor.

This is a presentational lecture style of information interwoven with monologues designed to support the topic of lecture.

Shakespeare on the Sound is committed to producing affordable, professional open-air productions of the plays of William Shakespeare and related authors in Fairfield County.  Working in collaboration with area civic, business and educational institutions, Shakespeare on the Sound presents an annual theatre festival, which brings great dramatic works to a broad audience, creating a forum for learning, appreciation and celebration. Our Educational programming goal is to build community through the arts, giving the works of Shakespeare a vibrant life beyond the summer festival with a variety of school, library, adult education, and art programs as a means to reach a diverse cross-section of people of all ages and economic backgrounds.
