SUMMARY:International Children’s Book Day: Winnie-the-Pooh
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate International Children’s Book Day\, Mayflower Bookshop organises a lecture on the famous Winnie-the-Pooh\, hero of the books by A.A. Milne. Who hasn’t grown up with Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends Piglet\, Eeyore\, Tigger\, Rabbit\, Kanga and Roe? Who doesn’t remember phrases such as: ‘It’s time for a little something’  and “I am not lost\, for I know where I am. But however\, where I am may be lost.” \nBut although the books on Winnie-the-Pooh are children’s books\, yet at the same time they’re adult literature too. Wim Tigges will talk at length on the magical world of Winnie-the-Pooh\, so don’t miss this event and journey with us to the Hundred Acre Wood\, where anything may happen…

SUMMARY:Shakespeare Festival
DESCRIPTION:2023 marks the fourth centennial of the publication of the ‘First Folio’\, which was published in 1623\, seven years after the death of William Shakespeare. This collection of 36 of Shakespeare’s works brought together by two of his friends\, John Heminges and Henry Condell under the full title of: \nMr. VVilliam Shakespeares comedies\, histories\, & tragedies. Published according to the true originall copies. \nAs a tribute to their friend\, Heminges and Condell wanted to put forward the best possible version of Shakespeare’s plays\, so they used original prompt books\, quartos\, and original notes to collate the final collection. \nMayflower Bookshop celebrates this milestone with a Shakespeare Festival on Sunday April 23rd\, the day on which the Bard died and also the date that might very well have been his birth date as well! \nThe festival will take up all afternoon\, starting at noon exactly and will cover multiple aspects of his work including the sonnets\, originally published in 1609 and a memorial. \nWe will kick-off the festival with a lecture by Dr. Wim Tigges\, frequent speaker at Mayflower Bookshop\, who will talk on genderfluidity in Shakespeare. \nThis lecture will be followed by the performance of two scenes from the comedy The Merry Wives of Windsor\, played by The Mayflower Theatre Company (Suze Hageman and Esther Straathof) under direction of house-director Sigrid de Zwart. \nAt 14.00\, Leo van Zanen gives a talk on Shakespeare’s Sugar’d Sonnets and musician Willem Vermaase will illustrate this lecture by playing a few Shakespearean songs. Leo\, a frequent guest-lecturer as well\, will subsequently lead a walk to ‘Sonnet 30’ where\, as a tribute to The Bard\, this poem will be recited in English and Dutch and a short memorial ceremony will take place. \nAt 16.00\, Tony Foster\, lecturer at Leiden University (English culture and literature) will delight you with atalk on law practice as portrayed in The Merchant of Venice after which the Mayflower Theatre Company will conclude the afternoon with a performance of a few scenes from the tragey Macbeth\, played by Freek Bouricius and Simme van de Lustgraaf\, under direction of guest-director Herman Duchenne. \nThe complete programme can be found here. \nIn the meantime\, to whet your appetite\, please visit the exhibition ‘Gesuikerde sonnetten’ (Sugar’d sonnets) in the B+C library\, organized by Leo van Zanen. More information: https://www.bplusc.nl/agenda/gesuikerde-sonnetten/ \nWe hope to welcome you all in April 23rd!
