The history of the London theaters during Shakespeare’s lifetime is a fascinating field of study that can help us better appreciate Shakespeare’s stagecraft. Come learn about the Theatre, commonly credited as the first permanently built theatre, the Red Lion, the Rose, the Curtain, the Hope, the Swan, and the two theaters most closely associated with Shakespeare: the Globe and the Blackfriars.
This event is FREE.
Beer, wine, and snacks provided!
The Opera Workshop (Sammy Huh, director) and the Collegium Musicum (Paula Maust, interim director) present a program of baroque opera scenes from Marc-Antoine Charpentier’s La descente d’Orphée aux enfers, Henry Purcell’s The Fairy-Queen, and Francesco Cavalli’s La Statira, principessa di Persia. Join them for an hour of exquisite music and action-packed drama that spans the gamut of human emotion. UMBC students will showcase Euridice’s joy followed by Orpheus’s despair, the merriment of fairies and a drunken poet, and a complicated love triangle laced with humor.
