At a time when all of us could use a little bit more open heartedness, Seattle Shakespeare Company has created a collection of Shakespeare’s songs, scenes, and sonnets to celebrate love and Valentine’s Day. To Woo – A Shakespeare Valentine is a free, 30-minute view on demand video to share with loved ones that will be available from February 12-14, 2021.
Created and curated by Artistic Director George Mount, To Woo – A Shakespeare Valentine features local artists performing selections from Romeo and Juliet, Much Ado About Nothing, Twelfth Night, The Tempest, and other Shakespeare works.
“While there’s still a lot that people are contending with both locally and in the world, we thought it might be good to spend some time with the words of the writer who explores the human heart in all its complexity… Shakespeare,” said Mount. “It’s been a joy to gather together virtually with our local artists to make this gift for our fans.”
More information about To Woo – A Shakespeare Valentine can be found on Seattle Shakespeare Company’s website (www.seattleshakespeare.org).
The presentation is made possible by the support of Perkins Coie.
