Shakespeare In Six Weeks

Tristan Vaughan and Morgan Duke Vaughan will begin a six-week course in Shakespeare at Guild Hall on Monday. The class is open to ages 16 and up, and will concentrate on sonnets, monologues, mask work, and scene work, culminating with a presentation in conjunction with the Naked Stage at the John Drew Theatre on Nov. 28. The classes will be held from 6 to 9 p.m., and cost $300, or $275 for Guild Hall members.

Morgan Vaughan was recently selected by the East End Arts Council as the new coordinator of the Teeny Awards, which honors local school productions with a red-carpet night reminiscent of the Tony Awards. In her new position, Ms. Vaughan plans to highlight past Teeny winners who have gone on to successful careers other than in the arts, showing the importance of drama programs in schools to help kids with confidence and team-playing.
