This Books and Coffee Discussion will be led by Concordia Theatre Director Gerard Dzuiblinski.

All are welcome to attend this discussion, which will serve as a precursor to the Feb. 8-17 professional contemporary dress production of Shakespeare's Hamlet that will be performed on the CUAA campus. William Shakespeare’s Hamlet, perhaps the most psychologically complex play ever written, follows the young prince from being “the expectancy and rose of the fair state” to his ultimate destruction. The Books and Cofee Discussion will also examine Ophelia, often overlooked amidst those more powerful than she, and how circumstances contribute to her demise. REGISTRATION This event is free and open to the CUAA community and beyond. No registration is required. ABOUT BOOKS AND COFFEE DISCUSSIONS Concordia's Books and Coffee Discussions series aims to promote stimulating discussion on a range of provocative texts. Each semester, two to three discussions are hosted by various CUAA leaders. Books and Coffee Discussions are free and open to the public.
