I knew that if I was going to study abroad in London, I would be taking a Shakespeare\u00a0course. I have studied his work in the past but thought it would be incredible to be able to go to the globe theatre, go to Stratford\u00a0upon\u00a0Avon\u00a0and really expand my knowledge to what I thought I knew about Shakespeare.<\/p>\n<p>Part of the requirements for my course was to be open to different outlooks on the messages that Shakespeare\u00a0want to portray in his work. My professor for this course was very passionate about his love for Shakespeare\u00a0and he wanted us to embark on our own journey to challenge who Shakespeare\u00a0was as a person and how we thought he used his words to portray that.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>What I really enjoyed about this course is that we were able to see multiple plays and use the visual learning to help us better understand our work. Not to mention it was super exciting to see a play at the actual globe theatre.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-123\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/london-fall-2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2018\/08\/globe-238x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"238\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/london-fall-2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2018\/08\/globe-238x300.jpg 238w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/london-fall-2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2018\/08\/globe-768x968.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/london-fall-2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2018\/08\/globe-812x1024.jpg 812w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/london-fall-2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2018\/08\/globe.jpg 1233w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 238px) 100vw, 238px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-124\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/london-fall-2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2018\/08\/globe2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/london-fall-2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2018\/08\/globe2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/london-fall-2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2018\/08\/globe2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/london-fall-2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2018\/08\/globe2.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Here are some of the shows I was able to see at the globe:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>King Lear\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Much Ado About Nothing<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Othello<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I was also able to see Antony &amp; Cleopatra at the Barbican on my own which was amazing!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Midway through the program, I also went to Stratford-upon-Avon\u00a0aka.
