COMING EVENTS:
Please be aware that seating in the Meeting Room is limited;
arrive early to be sure of a place.
Shakespeare Film Club
Owing to some communications errors about dates, our first go-round was not as well-attended as planned. To that end, Shakespeare Fans, we are hosting a double-header this March:
Friday, March 15th @ 7pm: JULIUS CAESAR starring Paterson Joseph (The Leftovers, Peep Show) as Brutus. It's the Ides of March and we're kicking off this month with the 2012 RSC stage production which casts Rome as a setting in modern Africa. Having returned to Rome from defeating Pompeii, Caesar is hailed by the people as a liberator. Meanwhile, members of the Senate fear the specter of possibly encroaching tyranny.
Friday, March 22nd @ 7pm : ROMEO AND JULIET starring Orlando Bloom (Lord of the Rings trilogy) and Condola Rashad (Billions) It's Shakespeare's timeless story of teen love on a collision course with hereditary hatred. This filmed Broadway production is from 2014 and puts the story in modern dress.
If interested in signing up to provide eatables for this month's (or future) screenings, please email michael.flanigan@gmail.com
