    Script Reading Group
    Following , we have once again chosen a classic script that allows us to delve deeply into gender issues. The portrayal of female characters in "Macbeth", as well as its reflection on "masculinity", are worthy of our in-depth discussion.

  • "Top Girls"

     

    Online Script Reading Club

    In the reading journey of "Top Girls", we follow the main character - Marlene, a successful career woman. We witness the gender discrimination she faces in a supposedly "gender-equal" workplace, and how a seemingly successful, radiant woman has abandoned a happy family life. The 'work-life balance' seems to have become an eternally unsolvable problem.

    However, fortunately, by understanding the fate of women throughout history and exploring their consciousness of resistance, we can discover that women's status is gradually improving. They have developed the idea and right to control their own lives, and everything is slowly getting better.

    Lumos Shakespeare Online Shared Reading of Plays
    Shakespeare's plays are a monument in the history of literature, and the moving stories of 400 years ago are still being performed in today's theatres, as well as being active in classrooms and textbooks. Shakespeare's plays are not only of great literary value, they are also important for students to understand the lineage of modern theatre development.
