Very excited to have the opportunity to think about #TitusAndronicus as a precursor to/trial run/source of #MeasureForMeasure for this event.
So many crossovers: in/justice, consent, rape, forced marriage, revenge, mercy, piety, pleading, beheading, substitutions ... and silence.

Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall:
Some run from brakes of ice, and answer none:
And some condemned for a fault alone.”

“Play On!”
I am super excited to see #TwelfthNight at #Shakespeare in the Park in Central Park in NYC later this month! I played Feste in college and have also seen it at the Chicago Shakespeare Theatre. My favorite play by the Bard: “O, it is excellent”! #MeasureForMeasure

Am teaching #MidsummerNightsDream alongside #AllsWellThatEndsWell this week, after #MeasureforMeasure last week - wow, it’s becoming very clear to me that Shakespeare was really not a fan of marriage in any shape or form - all of the marriages in these plays are either coercive or just plain weird

'Measure for Measure' offers no moral certainties as Shakespeare explores how legal codes & social norms could be tested in a tale of deceit & disguise. Not so much a 'problem' play but a very thoughtful one.Podcast episode out now! #Shakespeare #podcast #measureformeasure #theatre #theatrehistory
