Essex County

Sometimes it feels that we have no direction in our lives, and that everything just seems ordinary. However, according to Buddha, our potential for happiness and meaning is virtually limitless. In the teachings on tantra, we learn how to identify with our potential, in order to bring it into being swiftly. We will explore the underlying methodology of tantra and learn how Buddha's methods will help us to live the inspired life that we long for.$12/class, $50/ series

Lewis Carroll, the creator of Alice in Wonderland, wants desperately to be known as Charles Dodgson, the greatest portrait photographer in Britain. In his way is the larger-than-life Julia Margaret Cameron, who was the Annie Leibovitz of her day and a constant thorn in Dodgson's side. The real Alice will be there, too, navigating an identity crisis, along with Alfred Tennyson, the Victorian Idol of a society that worshiped its poets like rock stars.

Translated / Adapted by Anne Washburn. From the play by Euripides. Directed by Aaron Posner
The war is over, the parents murdered, the palace surrounded, and Orestes and Electra await judgment by both Gods and men...just a typical day in the House of Atreus. Anne Washburn's razor sharp modern adaptation blows more than 2000 years of dust off Euripides' surprisingly fresh and still wildly relevant classic.
Co-production with Folger Theatre, Washington, D.C. Tickets $35-$61
