The CSU, Chico University Public Engagement artist-in-residency program partners professional artists with students. This November, OLLI students and guests are invited to a private performance—for this OLLI class only—followed by a discussion with the actors.

The actors will present a scene from one of the Bard’s plays and will teach us about the language of Elizabethan England. As many of you already know, seeing Shakespeare performed is completely different from reading it in high school. Understanding the language opens up an appreciation for the power and beauty of the writing.

November 9 is the deadline to register and pay for this exclusive performance that will be held November 27 from 9-11am at Laxson Auditorium. The class fee is just $15 per person and non-members are welcome to attend at the same rate.

You can register and pay online, or you can contact the OLLI office 530-898-6679 to pay by credit card over the telephone.
