The Wooden O Symposium is a cross disciplinary conference exploring
Medieval, Renaissance, and Early Modern Studies, through the text and
performance of Shakespeare's plays. Scholars from all disciplines are
encouraged to submit papers that offer insights and new ideas springing
from the era and works of William Shakespeare. His plays are replete
with the language, thoughts, and arts of the Renaissance and Western
culture and represent an inexhaustible source for creative ideas and
research.
Papers are accepted from professional scholars, graduate students,
undergraduates, and aficionados. All submissions are subject to the
same academic peer review process.

the Tony Award- winning Utah Shakespearean Festival, which will be
