Shakespeare Festival Reads

Reading Group books are available from Left Bank Books in St. Louis, MO at a 20% discount.

The Magnificoes! are interested and interesting folks who gather once a month to talk plays, poems, criticism, history, and fiction! The group began in May of 2012 just in time for that year’s production of Othello #InTheGlen by Shakespeare Festival St. Louis. Our long-term goal is to read all of the plays in the canon (38 of them) while enjoying the many creative works written that illuminate, complicate, and build on them. 2018 marked our 3rd year performing a staged reading as part of Shake 38!

We usually meet the third Tuesday of every month.

**This group is meeting virtually on Zoom for an invitation to join email shane.m@left-bank.com**
