February 03, 2009
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - The month of February marks the fifth month in The Nashville Shakespeare Festival's ongoing program, Shakespeare Allowed!, which will feature Titus Andronicus.
The program Shakespeare Allowed! brings participants together each month to read aloud one of Shakespeare's works. The goal is to read all his works beginning with the first play he wrote and ending with his last. The program began last October, and will continue once a month over the next three years.
Titus Andronicus is scheduled to be read on Sat., Feb. 7. from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the downtown main library. The play follows the revenge of the Roman general, Titus Andronicus, and is one of Shakespeare's bloodiest works.
The Nashville Shakespeare Festival invites everyone to join the reading circle, as an out-loud reader or as a listener. Shakespeare Allowed! is a free event, open to the public.
Other scheduled programs include:
The Comedy of Errors, March 7 The Taming of the Shrew, April 4 The Two Gentleman of Verona, May 2
