Shakespearean Hip Hop

Was the Bard the original master of ceremony straight out of Stratford-upon-Avon? This performance laboratory explores the intersection of Shakespeare’s language and plays with the culture, style, and artistry of Hip Hop. Students will use performance alongside an examination of the art, storytelling, and poetry of Hip Hop’s greatest artists to develop a unique and immersive understanding of Shakespeare’s greatest hits.
