Shakespeare in Performance

BRING THE BEAUTY OF SHAKESPEARE TO LIFE

Once you pass your audition, you’ll get immersed in the art of script analysis, expression and movement, improv comedy, ensemble work and more! You and your troupe of fellow actors, singers, musicians, and dancers will present creative adaptations of some of the greatest dramas ever written.

Skills You will Gain

1. Performance – Refine your talents and put your skills in full display with training in voice, movement, dramaturgy and the art of acting as a gift of self.

2. Self-expression – Learn to speak Shakespeare’s language with such skill, power, confidence and purpose that you’ll improve your self-expression in the real world.

3. Anthropological knowledge – Humanity’s greatest poets express the deepest and most profound longings of the human heart. By studying drama, you learn how to connect with your fellow man in the past, present and future.
