“The Merchant of Venice”: St. Augustine’s Homeschool Enrichment Program Campion Players
May 17–19. Henry Russell directs a cast of area homeschooled teens in Shakespeare’s tragicomedy about passion and revenge. The vexing character of Shylock, who is both a villain—demanding a literal pound of flesh from the merchant who owes him money—and a victim of anti-Semitism, has provoked controversy for centuries. 7 p.m. (Fri. & Sat.) & 3 p.m. (Sun.), Lydia Mendelssohn Theater. $8 in advance at mutotix.umich.edu & at the door. (517) 740–1469.
