This group started as a one-off class examining the the works of Shakespere. We have up to this point read over 27 of the 37 plays known to be written by Shakespeare. We resume on October 8th, 2025, with a discussion of Titus Andronicus.

We are doing close readings of the plays, so there is no set time regarding how long we will spend on each play. Anyone is welcome to join at any time. We recommend having a copy of the play we are reading that has good explanatory footnotes. The Folger or Arden editions are recommended

The $50 fee for non-members provides funding for our Adult Education classes (from July 2024–June 2025), and we deeply appreciate this support. If you are interested in becoming a member to participate in free Adult Ed classes, please contact Stacy Charnay at stacy@sholomchicago.org.
