FUN
WITH SHAKESPEARE This class is a must for those who want to understand
the language of Shakespeare. Uncover not only the simple truths of
the written word, but the complexities of style and interpretation that
make these plays timeless, fun, astounding and probably the greatest
ever written in any language let alone English. Perform actual scenes
from plays, while receiving analysis from your teacher and classmates.
You should know, a minimum of two hours per week rehearsal time outside
of class is not only a must, but important to your success!

the joke, and this introductory workshop will benefit the students by
proving to them that once we get out of our own way, anyone can
improvise!
