If you're at #shax2026 and you would like to write a performance review for @shaxbull.bsky.social, or you'd just like to find out more about it, then please come and say hello to me! I look like my profile picture (minus Paul Revere pointing at me) and I'd love to talk to you 🙂

Don’t miss tonight’s #Shax2026 performance of BIOphelia! Actor Amanda Vialva revives Ophelia’s journey to evolve Shakespeare’s story beyond the binary of Hamlet’s existential question (you know the one) and look at how we may adapt as part of nature, and better learn to inter-be…

This morning at #shax2026, I was then able to hear the Futures panel on contingency & am now auditing a fabulous seminar On Glossing before lunch. I have lots on my mind about attentiveness and attention in literary studies & pedagogy, & am excited to keep thinking about these in future sessions!
Yesterday at #shax2026 was a somewhat jet-lagged but exciting series of sessions. After attending the wonderful Lyric Attachments panel, it was a pleasure to co-chair Essaying Shakespeare & then hear the panel Beyond New Materialism before catching up with old & new acquaintances at the reception.
After an absolutely silly amount of flight delays, I finally made it to Denver for #Shax2026, so excited to talk "Power Dressing" with my brilliant seminar participants this morning!
What a great screening of ‘Acting’ at #Shax2026, following a Cheek by Jowl rehearsal. I loved its discussion of the question “Can you over-rehearse? You can over-anything if you remove it from human experience”
So excited my book is next to the work of the incredible Susan Phillips at the UPenn #Shax2026 table! PCRS marching forward. Get yo discount! #ShakeRace #RaceB4Race
Had lots of fun talking about Diana and queer time at the Comparative Sexualities seminar yesterday at #shax2026. And having a natter about perimenopausal queens with @prof-burzynska.bsky.social ! ❤️

When your undergraduate advisor gets to introduce you to her undergraduate advisor and you get to be three generations of Shakespeareans at #Shax2026 🥰
I had the best time in Silence on Stage #Shax2026 — such a wide-ranging discussion of the connections between all of our papers! We covered the plays we wrote about, the plays we’ve been thinking about, & the plays that we would write about now (by way of Monty Python and Reduced Shakespeare, obvs).
Heartfelt thanks to @gemmaallred.bsky.social and @edelsemple.bsky.social, two co-conveners both alike in brilliance. A pleasure and privilege to bring this seminar to fruition with you! ❤️🔥 #Shax2026
My first experience of convening a seminar at @saaupdates.bsky.social could not have been better. Immense thanks to everyone who contributed to Baz Luhrmann's 'William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet' at Thirty seminar. Your papers, discussions and questions were all fantastic. #Shax2026
