In one of the most tumultuous years in modern history, the seizure of the USS Pueblo gripped the nation as North Korea captured a U.S. Navy vessel and its crew. Seizure of the Pueblo remains a lesson today about the unpredictable nature of the North Koreans and the volatility of the region. At the end of Lyndon Johnson’s term as President, the nation worried about the fate of the ship’s heroic crew. After the crew’s return home, their Commanding Officer was nearly court martialed for his role in the incident.

This class will consider three superb actresses who brought the role of Lady Macbeth to the British Stage. Sarah Siddons's interpretation of the role set the standard in the 18th century; Ellen Terry and Judi Dench followed with equally admired Lady Macbeths on the 19th and 20th century stages, respectively. Is Lady M a villain who incites her husband to murder? Or is she a supportive wife whose moral compass is skewed by her husband's ambition? How does each actress's sense of Lady M's character define her performance from the opening scenes of calculating and planning to the closing scene of madness?

If you’ve ever been hijacked by your feelings, and done or said something you later regretted, you’ve probably tried thinking positively to try to get over the uncomfortable feeling. Or maybe you tried staying busy. Or reminding yourself things could be worse. But it doesn’t work, does it? Not because you’re doing it wrong. Suppressing or overriding feelings doesn’t make them go away. It just makes them wait. And then they show up at the worst possible moment: In a conversation you didn’t mean to derail… in a reaction that surprised even you… in a 3 A.M. spiral you can’t stop. What if the answer isn’t to get over your feelings, but to get bigger than them? This class will offer you a simple way to do this.
