Literature to Life is a presentation program that offers two enriching services:
literary studies and Victorian era lectures.
literary studies and Victorian era lectures.
The core program of Literature to Life is designed to teach classic literature by bringing it to life! In authentic costumes and with a dramatic flare, Sloane creates a world where the past comes alive and offers relevance to our modern world. For example, when Frankenstein's monster expresses feelings of extreme loneliness and isolation, it has a little more meaning when you realize Mary Shelley wrote those emotionally tormented chapters after reading the suicide note of her half-sister.
Although many classic novels were written during the Victorian era, this program is not restricted to only Victorian era novels. As mentioned, you couldn’t have a complete list of ‘classic literature’ without Frankenstein!
You will find numerous options listed in the Presentation Catalog under the headings
Your Night, Your Novel and Once Upon a Teatime.
