Shakespeare
Dallas and AT&T Performing Arts Center are in the midst of presenting
staged readings of every single one of Williams Shakespeare's works over five
years. The 26th in the series will be Narrative Poems.
A
dramatic performance of Shakespeare’s two major narrative poems, Venus and
Adonis and The Rape Of Lucrece. Believed to have been written while London
theaters were closed due to the plague and among the first works by Shakespeare
ever published. These rarely performed poems based on works by Ovid and focused
on eroticism and matters of the heart explore the guilt and moral confusion
created by uncontrolled lust.
