If you are reading this, you probably are not in Tappan Square, watching Commencement take place. However, you can still catch it online, by clicking here.

As you probably know, Julie Taymor ’74 is the Commencement speaker. Her talk yesterday (in the Science Center) was one of the hottest events this weekend - literally and figuratively. People were practically beating down the doors to West Lecture Hall to catch a glimpse of the award-winning theater and film director - and the temperature inside the jam-packed hall was sweltering. It was worth it though.

My favorite Julie Taymor quote from yesterday:

“It’s strange to make Shakespeare for the movies, and Spiderman for the stage.”
