Shakespeare coined the phrase "It's all Greek to me," and based many of his stories on Greek and Roman myths. Delve into the myths of Ovid’s Metamorphoses and the familiar characters that live on in Shakespeare’s and other authors’ works. Why do these tales still speak to us?

The students, incorporating improvisation and storytelling, will perform scenes from the myths.
