What makes Shakespeare’s characters unique, and how do they show people who they are?

Join the Folger and look at different ways Shakespeare’s characters showed off who they are. Through the words, attendees will look more deeply at what separates one person from another, and consider how they themselves are unique from everyone else!

There are two sessions available with these recommended ages:

  • 11:30am–12:30pm: Recommended for ages 5-7
  • 1–2pm: Recommended for ages 8-11
