It’s tempting to think of the women in Shakespeare’s plays as tragic victims, picturing Ophelia softly drifting down the river to her death. But Shakespeare’s female characters actually show incredible grit and spirit, even though they are outnumbered by the men in Shakespeare’s plays. Several of his characters -- from young Juliet in Romeo and Juliet and quiet Cordelia in King Lear to Beatrice in Much Ado About Nothing and Isabella in Measure for Measure -- take the spotlight in their plays and leave us pondering their words and decisions more than 400 years later. Go behind the scenes with Carol Ann Lloyd to meet Shakespeare’s heroines! Carol Ann will be signing copies of her books after the lecture.
