SHAKESPEARE’S ‘DARK LADY’ WILL BE in the spotlight all next week at a small, private bilingual school in western France as Chavagnes International College celebrates ‘Shakespeare week’. The event will include a series of lectures, performances and presentations featuring Peter Bassano, the new Music Director of City of Rochester Symphony Orchestra.
Mr Bassano is a descendant of Aemelia Bassano – identified by several leading scholars (including A.L. Rowse) as the ‘Dark Lady’ of Shakespeare’s Sonnets. The proceedings of the 2011 Shakespeare Week begin in Chavagnes-en-Paillers with aperos at 5pm on 21 March and continue nightly, ending Friday.
