This summer, study and perform with the Maryland Summer Shakespeare Intensive at Goucher College.
This three-week, three-credit, actor-training course will run from Monday, June 2, to Sunday, June 22. Participants will learn original practices, an approach to acting Shakespeare that captures the form and methods of Elizabethan-era theatre companies, and emphasizes direct interaction with the audience.
Classes will review Shakespeare scene study, voice, and movement for the stage; analyze texts; and participate in workshops and lectures on Shakespeare’s life and times, stage combat, and historic dance. Students also will have the opportunity to perform on Friday, June 20; Saturday, June 21; and Sunday, June 22.
The course is taught by professional actors, along with members of the Goucher faculty from the Department of Theatre. The registration deadline is Thursday, May 15.
