Whoops--July's email got stuck in our drafts


Shakespeare Anyone?

What we've been up to in the month of July

Whoops! Our monthly newsletter for July got stuck in drafts--our apologies.

We've had a busy summer--Elyse has been working on multiple theatre projects over the past month and Kourtney travelled to Verona to see some Shakespeare (more on that below).

We are also heading into an exciting season of work beyond the podcast that we are excited to share on the podcast and on Patreon. Kourtney is wrapping up her dissertation this month, and Elyse is co-writing a family-friendly play about Shakespeare that will be produced by B Street Theatre in October.

#HotShakespeareSummer

Our #HotShakespeareSummer has been so much fun so far! We sent off our first set of prizes to our June winners last month and just announced our July winners over in Instagram. It's been incredible to see photos from Shakespeare productions all over the world--we even had a submission all the way from Austria!

To join in the fun:

  1. 🎟 Go see a Shakespeare show — from park productions to candlelit classics.
  2. 📸 Take a photo or video — your outfit, the stage, the vibes, the picnic, the post-show glow.
  3. 🏷 Tag @shakespeareanyonepod in your story or post.
  4. ✨ Use the hashtag #HotShakespeareSummer
  5. 🔁 We’ll share your stories & shout out our favorite Shakespeare sightings all summer long.

P.S. If you don't have social media and want to participate, feel free to send us photos (and permission to use them on our social media) by emailing us at hello@shakespeareanyone.com

Shakespeare Anyone? Podcast

We are two Shakespeare nerds who decided to make a podcast about our love for Shakespeare. In this podcast, we will tackle as many dimensions to Shakespeare’s plays as we can by looking at the text and how the text is viewed through modern lenses of feminism, racism, classism, colonialism, nationalism… all the-isms. We will discuss how his plays shaped both the past and present. And, as actors, we will look at how his work was performed throughout various periods of time. All while trying our best to approach his works without giving in to bardolatry. So...Shakespeare Anyone?
