Event Details

Join Sunil Malapati as the Dubuque Shakespeare Project holds discussions regarding Shakespeare's tragedies and comedies.

The Merchant of Venice

Synopsis: Two fairy tales running in parallel and intersecting in strange ways: the ogre who demands ‘a pound of flesh’ for a failed payment and a fair lady who must be won with a three casket problem. Rich in symbolism, this comedy also raises troubling questions on privilege and treatment of religious minorities.
