Chesapeake Forum - Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, Or What You Will
November 4th, 10-11:30 a.m.; Virtual Event
Chesapeake Forum brings back the popular Instructors, John Miller & Suzanne Sanders to welcome you to the world of Twelfth Night, Or What You Will. They will lead you through an investigation of how and why this drama has enchanted audiences for over 400 years. Twelfth Night is a fast-paced romantic comedy with several interwoven plots of love, vengeful practical jokes, and mistaken identities. Twelfth Night might seem like a typical situation comedy. In fact, it does contain elements of both modern rom-com and musical theater. Funny and full of seemingly madcap characters, it has remained one of the most popular and admired of all of Shakespeare’s plays. But remember this is Shakespeare. There’s plenty more going on beneath the silly surface. Deep, shadowy emotions set off those bright spots of hilarity. The characters leave lots of room for debate. Still, the beautifully poignant happy ending resolves all conflicts…or does it? We look forward to exploring Twelfth Night together. Whether or not you have seen or studied this play, this course is for you. Choose Between ZOOM Classes or Recorded, 3 Sessions, Thursdays| Nov. 4, 11, 18 from 10:00 – 11:30 am, $30.
