A free event in two parts of Shakespeare scenes and Arboretum talks in a collaboration between the Arnold Arboretum and Actors’ Shakespeare Project. Part II, Saturday, October 17, 7:30pm
The Nature of Shakespeare underscores the timeless connections between humans and their environment.
In two distinct episodes (October 3 and 17), scenes and sonnets, that focus on the natural world, were captured on film in seven different Arboretum locations. Overviews of the Arboretum’s collections and stories of where the scenes are located meld with the sensibility of language and nature in Shakespeare’s work.
Each episode will be live-streamed via virtual platforms, with experts from the Arboretum talking about the specific natural area that is featured. The Nature of Shakespeare will mark the third collaboration between Actors’ Shakespeare Project and the Arnold Arboretum.
Join us online via Zoom.
