if you are using MLA format:
For a live performance of a play, a ballet, an opera, or a concert, begin with the title of the work performed. Then name the author or composer of the work (preceded by the word "By"), followed by as much information about the performance as is available: the director ("Dir."), choreographer ("Chor."), or conductor ("Cond."); the major performers ("Perf."); the theater, ballet, or opera company; the theater and its city; and the date of the performance.
Art. By Yasmina Reza. Dir. Matthew Warchus. Perf. Philip Franks, Leigh Lawson, and Simon Shephard. Whitehall Theatre, London. 3 Dec. 2001.
Cello Concerto No. 2. By Eric Tanguy. Cond. Seiji Ozawa. Perf. Mstislav Rostropovich. Boston Symphony Orch. Symphony Hall, Boston. 5 Apr. 2002.

MLA:
Garber, Marjorie. Lecture on Shakespeare’s Othello. Literature and Arts A-41—
[speaker.] [“title.”] [sponsoring event/course name.]
Shakespeare, The Later Plays. Harvard University, Cambridge. 10 Mar 1982.
[location.] [performance date.]
APA:
Identify as lecture or performance in your paper. Do not list in your References.
Chicago:
33. Garber, Lecture on Othello.
Chicago is mainly used for Government/History papers not for english which is why the citation doesnt make sense.

Thanks for all the help. Turned in this morning.
No, the paper's themselves have been done for a while, I was hustling to get the footnotes done though. Due on Monday, but I'm out having fun this weekend. Weeee!

Wow, a College/HS student turning a paper in early? Your teacher must have died of shock.
