Shakespeare production transforms honors students
Pirates, brothels, treachery and a riddle -- Lindsay Jordan has experienced them all in her first year at UC Davis. On stage, that is, while playing the lead part in Shakespeare’s Pericles, Prince of Tyre as part of the course "Playing Shakespeare."
Jordan is part of the Integrated Studies Honors Program, which encourages students to step beyond the boundaries of their major and try new things. "Playing Shakespeare" was among the special courses offered to program participants this spring, and the class will present free performances of Pericles on June 6 and 7.
