SUMMARY:KCL Greek Play 2024
DESCRIPTION:The KCL Greek play is taking place on 19-21st June. The play is an adaptation of Lysistrata. There will be a 30 min presentation by a distinguished scholar before each evening performance\, starting at 6pm\, free to evening-ticket-holders. \n\n\n \n\nJune 19: Professor Edith Hall  (Durham University).\n\n\n\nJune 20: Dr. Nick Lowe from Royal Holloway.\n\n\n\nJune 21: Dr. Naomi Scott from the University of Bristol.\n\n\n\n \nFurther information can be found via the QR code on the poster. \n \n\n\n \n\n\n\n \nA script unsuitable for Victorian sensibilities. A growing gender revolution. A student theatre group. What could go wrong?   \n\n\n \nNear the end of the nineteenth century\, a group of students gather to put on their 6th annual Greek Play- a performance of an original ancient text. However\, (recent) tradition is disrupted when they find out that not only are they to stage the seemingly unstageable Lysistrata\, but that female students from the separate Ladies Department will participate for the first time.   \n\n\n \nUsing a mixture of new material and original text from Aristophanes\, Lysistrata in the Wings explores the reinterpretation of ancient theatre and how it takes on new meanings for each generation.’

SUMMARY:'Having a Queer Old Time with Tibullus'\, an Online Talk
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday 25 June at 5.30. Registration on this link (and below).\n\n \n\nTo celebrate Pride Month and Diversity Week\, LSF Classics Lecture by Dr Joe Watson (Teaching Fellow in Latin Literature and Language\, University of Warwick)\n\n \n\nTitle: ‘Having a Queer Old Time with Tibullus’\n\n \n\nAbstract: The Roman poet Tibullus (c. 55 BCE–c. 19 BCE) wrote two books of love poems in the elegiac genre\, most of which were addressed to two women named Delia and Nemesis. However\, a short cycle of three poems (Tibullus 1.4\, 1.8 and 1.9) chronicles the poet-lover’s affair and break-up with a boy called Marathus. In this lecture\, Dr Joe Watson will explore how Tibullus connects this homoerotic relationship with the themes of time and cyclicality. Through the use of some contemporary queer theory\, we will explore the connections between homosexuality\, queerness\, time and poetry.\n\n \n\nThe talk will be held on Teams and it is a free public lecture.\n\n \n\nTo register for the talk please follow this link.\n\n \n\nIf you have any queries\, please contact Dr M Gonzalez Rodriguez at m.rodriguez@lsf.org‘

SUMMARY:’In Ithaka’ at the Greenwood Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Teachers and students are invited to join us at KCL’s Greenwood Theatre on Friday June 28\, 6.30-8pm for a free performance of ‘In Ithaka’. ‘In Ithaka’ is an operatic work-in-progress\, co-developed and sponsored by the Penelope’s Web creative research project. The performance will include a Q&A with creative artists\, performers\, and academics.\n\n\nPenelope’s Web is an opera project that stems from Homer’s ancient Greek epic\, the Odyssey. It explores the motivations of Odysseus’ wife Penelope\, the great exemplar of feminine endurance and cunning\, and the other characters left behind in Odysseus’ palace on the island of Ithaka. Cheryl Frances-Hoad (composer) and Jeanne Pansard-Besson (librettist and director) are creating a work that questions how Penelope’s story has been told in the past\, and reflects on new ways in which contemporary music can give voice to the minor characters of the Odyssey.\n\nInspired by the setting of Margaret Atwood’s The Penelopiad\, ‘In Ithaka’ takes place in a Greek Underworld where shape-shifting characters recall and retell their past lives. Two mezzo-sopranos will sing the role of Penelope\, and the Choir of King’s College London will sing the part of her suitors and the enslaved palace workers. This première of ‘In Ithaka’ in the Greenwood Theatre shows how the collaborative work of Penelope’s Web is giving a twenty-first century afterlife to the lost soundworlds of ancient Greek epic.\n\n\n\nAll Classics teachers and students may find this event of interest\, but year 12 students of Class Civ are likely to find it particularly helpful for exploring a novel dimension to ‘World of the Hero’.\n\nThe event is open to the public to turn up on the night\, but we would appreciate people signing up at the following link to give us some idea of numbers:\n\n\nhttps://www.tickettailor.com/events/kingscollegelondon56/1292323a
