NASHVILLE, Tenn.–Learn more about the amorous side of William Shakespeare as Vanderbilt@TPAC@Vanderbilt@TPAC presents "Shakespeare: In and Out of Love" Thursday, March 20 at 11:30 a.m. in War Memorial Auditorium at Legislative Plaza.

The second "InsideOut of the (Lunch) Box" series features David Grapes, artistic producing director of the Tennessee Repertory Theatre, and Terryl Hallquist, director of the Vanderbilt University Theatre. They will be joined by actors from The Rep who will perform an excerpt from their upcoming production of "The Taming of the Shrew."

A box lunch will be provided free of charge to the first 300 people who sign up. Others are welcome as space permits. To reserve a free lunch, call 322-8585 or e-mail tpac@vanderbilt.edu.

Following up on the success of the continuing "Thinking Out of the (Lunch) Box" series of lectures with a philosophical flair at the Nashville Public Library, the new series will provide a glimpse of the performing arts, artists and the artistic process from the inside out.

The series kicked off Feb. 27 with an exploration of African influences in contemporary American choreography and composition with the innovative original work, LAPseDANCE. The final program this spring will be April 10 when Bill Ivey, Branscomb Scholar at Vanderbilt and former chair of the National Endowment for the Arts, will take a look at how the arts are funded in America, examining the evolution of support for community-based arts and arts organizations.
