Third Thursday @ Your Library - The Bard in The 'Burg May 15, 2008
Williamsburg, Virginia 23185
Producing Director Christopher Owens offers an overview of the 2008 Virginia Shakespeare Festival as part of Third Thursday @ Your Library series on Thursday, May 15 at 7 p.m. in the Schell Room at the Williamsburg Library, 515 Scotland Street. The program is free of charge.
This years Festival celebrates its 30th year in Williamsburg with two comedies and The Bard's greatest tragedy. Sparks fly as Petruchio and Kate match wits in The Taming of the Shrew; the villainous Iago deceives the heroic Moor in Othello; and everything you know about American history gets the irreverent treatment in The Complete Works of American History (Abridged). The Festival runs June 25 to August 3 in Phi Beta Kappa Memorial Hall at the College of William and Mary.
Williamsburg Regional Library's Adult Services Division organizes the ongoing Third Thursdays @ Your Library series, featuring subjects of local interest, author talks, hobbies and pastimes. The programs take place monthly at the Williamsburg Library. Call the Adult Services Division at (757) 259-4050 for more information.
