Abstract
National scholars, local artists, a film director and a Hollywood actor will participate in a conversation at Rhodes College about so-called ‘non-traditional’ casting of Shakespeare's plays and African American artists who have adapted Macbeth in their works. "Shakespeare in Color: A Symposium on Macbeth and African American Performances and Appropriations” will be held Friday, January 25, 2008. The symposium is sponsored by Rhodes’ Center for Outreach in the Development of the Arts (CODA); additional support comes from the Departments of Theatre, English, and African American Studies. The event has been coordinated by Scott L. Newstok, assistant professor of English at Rhodes.
