Milt Commons Shakespeare: "Richard III"

Join us in reading Shakespeare plays out loud; no prior experience needed. We assign roles by scenes, and discuss the scenes after.

You only need a copy of the play to participate; we use the Folger's online version: https://shakespeare.folger.edu/shakespeares-works

We will commence or resume our reading of our current play from where we left off the previous week.

***
After the play reading, for those who are interested, we will show the scenes we have just read from a RSC production.

The Shakespeare readings are named in honor of our long-time participant, Milt Commons.

Late-comers, unless we know you, will generally not be admitted, as it disrupts the reading. However, it's fine for attendees to drop off at any time they want.
