Shakespeare’s plays make the perfect foundation for actor creativity and improvisation. During this workshop, while using a variety of scenes from several plays, we will work on performance skills like spontaneity, cast teamwork, and actor’s awareness of space. No memorization required; all levels of experience will enjoy interacting and performing together.
