Directorial Concepts and Cutting the Script

Ever wonder what it’s like to direct a Shakespeare play? The rules of romance are upended in As You Like It, a gloriously entertaining romantic comedy that gleefully interrogates traditional notions of gender, politics, and love. Listen in to a pre-show discussion between Sara Holdren, director of As You Like It at the 2024 Notre Dame Shakespeare Festival and theatre critic for New York Magazine, and Jennifer Thorup Birkett ’23 PhD, Shakespeare at Notre Dame postdoctoral research associate.

Join us January 16, 2025 for the release of the video and podcast recordings of this fascinating conversation.
