Description

Humanities West presents Cleopatra: The Last Pharaoh, a 2-day lecture and performance series bringing to life one of history’s most intriguing women. Amassing enormous wealth and power, Cleopatra lived dangerously and died sensationally. Ever since, she has been an iconic figure, continually re-imagined through the cultural prisms of successive ages. A panel of noted scholars and acclaimed Bay Area performers celebrate her rich legacy.

Presenters include Stacy Schiff (Pulitzer Prize-winning author), Grant Carter (Stanford), Lisa Pieraccini (Berkeley), and Robert Gurval (UCLA); performers are Sara Duchovnay (soprano), Mariya Kaganskaya (soprano), Andrew Wang (piano) and Steven Harmon (French horn).
