Our next workshop presenter will teach on Monday March 22nd from 6 - 8PM. The class is Acting on the Text with Noah Lucé
No matter your age, no matter your training, and no matter if you like him or not – at some point in your life you will encounter William Shakespeare. The Bards works have been produced for centuries because the language is astounding, the characters are complex, and the stories are compelling.
This workshop is designed to be a “crash course” in performing Shakespeare. The goal is to briefly cover iambic pentameter, acting on the text (lines), and using our instrument (body/voice) to communicate. While we won’t go too deep, the aim of the workshop is to show students that there isn’t all that much to fear AND that, at the end of the day, Shakespeare is meant to be spoken, not read.
