In this course, we’ll read seven plays that sample the broad range of theatrical genres and content with which Shakespeare worked. We’ll read plays spanning from near the beginning of Shakespeare’s career (A Midsummer Night’s Dream) to the end (The Winter’s Tale). We’ll read popular plays that are frequently taught in the classroom and performed on the stage (As You Like It, King Lear, Henry V), plays you may have heard of but will seldom see (Antony and Cleopatra), and a play that almost everybody neglects (Troilus and Cressida).
