You will be working 5 hours a day. And learn each day about Shakespeare through two of his plays, the characters, their relationships, and the stories.
They will be introduced to the language through insults, we will NOT be deep-diving into poetry or poetic language. That’s a whole other workshop.
WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE:
Daily we’ll start with a vocal warm up.
Then move onto some insults.
Followed by looking at the selected plays and the conflicts between their characters & relationships.
Each day ends students being cast and making performances of the plays in synopsis form.
