Abstract: In 2023–24, the authors led a year-long study of Thomas Kyd’s influential Elizabethan revenge drama, The Spanish Tragedy , at Villanova University. The project included an interdisciplinary grad-undergrad course, guest artists, a scholarly symposium, and a full-scale production with accompanying website. In this article, the authors reflect on the logistics of planning and executing this project within a university framework, situating the work of students, faculty, artists, and other partners within the larger community of the university. In doing so, this article reflects on the project’s achievements and the core underpinning principles and support that projects of this scale might emulate.
