Los Angeles, CA

Shakespeare in American Communities: Schools

FY2022

About

Shakespeare Center is creating a live post-apocalyptic graphic novel performance of Shakespeare’s Macbeth that blends real time online performances of an inclusive cast of actors working under AEA contract with illustrated graphic novel stylized storyboard renderings of post-apocalyptic Southern California locales for Macbeth. Actors’ performances will stream live onscreen into classrooms as the pages of our graphic novel turn. Artists will zoom in to classrooms to prep and debrief students.
