Explore the Magic of Shakespeare in Our Five-Session Workshop Series
Join us for an immersive journey into one of Shakespeare’s beloved plays. Over five workshops, we’ll delve into each act, exploring the text in a dynamic, rehearsal-style setting. With scripts in hand and on your feet, you’ll bring the Bard’s words to life and discover new depths in his timeless works.
Our next play will be As You Like It, Shakespeare’s delightful exploration of love, identity, and self-discovery. Set in the enchanting Forest of Arden, this pastoral comedy brims with wit, humor, and charm, as characters from all walks of life find themselves transformed by their adventures. With unforgettable roles like Rosalind, Orlando, Celia, Jaques, and Touchstone, this play offers rich opportunities to explore themes of gender, disguise, and the universal longing for connection and belonging.
Workshops will begin on Monday, March 3, 2025, 6:30 to 9:30pm and run weekly for five sessions. Casting of roles will be gender-neutral, giving all participants a chance to explore Shakespeare’s vibrant characters and language in fresh and exciting ways.
