The UNL Medieval and Renaissance Studies program will host an exciting opportunity for students and faculty on March 9 at 6pm in Andrews 117. We’ve arranged to have a free screening of the Round House Theatre’s (in association with the Folger Theatre) adaptation of The Tempest. This innovative production was created by Aaron Posner and Teller (of Penn and Teller) and, as a result, plays up the magic elements of The Tempest. The free event is open to all students and faculty, and we’d love to see you there. The show is about two hours and 30 minutes, and we’ll have time for discussion afterward for anyone who wants to stay.
