IN Series: Opera that Speaks. Theater that Sings.

Untimeliness: The Brief Lives—and Long Afterlives—of Romeo and Juliet
The fourth of the Shakespeare Everywhere Festival Lecture Series

Shakespeare Theatre Company: Harman Hall

Untimeliness: The Brief Lives—and Long Afterlives—of Romeo and JulietPremature, belated, ill-timed, too late at night or too early in the morning---untimeliness in all its variations marks the plot of Romeo and Juliet. Perhaps it is in part for that reason that these “star-crossed lovers” have figured in so many after-stories, and fired the imagination not only of playwrights and filmmakers, but also of composers and musicians.Marjorie Garber will examine the timely untimeliness of Shakespeare’s play to coincide with STC Artistic Director Simon Godwin’s production of Gounod’s Romeo and Juliet with the Washington National Opera.
