Culp Lecture & Reception

by   |  10.30.19  |  Events

Join Dr. Joe Stephenson as he reveals all he knows about the origins of The Dutch Lady, an exciting, long-lost play. Fresh off trips to London (where The Dutch Lady was performed by Shakespeare’s Globe) and Virginia (where he made an exciting announcement about his research), Dr. Stephenson has returned to Abilene and is ready to tell all. His research as Culp professor will finish next year, but he has already found out quite a bit about the origins of this play–when and where it was written, where it may have been performed, its sources and influence . . . . and perhaps even a hint at the authorship!

The event will be in the CORE Classroom on Nov. 4, 7:30-8:30 p.m. Refreshments will include cookies–a snack and a word which came into our culture through Dutch influence.
