Barb Hone Shakespeare

William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet Class

New Class Starting Tuesday, January 15, 10:30-11:30am

Barb Hone will teach an 8-week course on William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. This tragedy is the core of the class, but the class will also provide a capsulized history of drama: the worldview as the Middle Ages tumbled into the Renaissance; Shakespeare, the man, the playwright, the poet; and the culture of the Elizabethan Era.

The cost is $65/student and includes the book. Register by January 10, 2019.

Details and Registration is on our Classes page.

Questions, contact instructor Barb Hone.


After the class…

Romeo & Juliet

The ACCC’s first class in the new Art Center in Victoria just ended. The syllabus was completed; the students were enthusiastically engaged; and we were honored to have guest speakers, Poet Laurate, Dr. Joyce Sutphen and Dr. Walter Cannon. Their professional areas of expertise – the Renaissance and Shakespeare, respectively!

The final class was a “field trip” to Barb’s house for a potluck brunch, Zeffirelli’s movie, Romeo & Juliet and the following written testimonials: “A casual approach to what can be intimidating.” “Fantastic way to learn.” “Awesome and enriching, worthwhile!”

Classroom – art & community. Appreciation, sharing perspectives, research and laughter. “Parting is such sweet sorrow.”

Thanks, Barb Hone
