Description
This class provides stimulus for those who have already worked in Shakespeare and ways in for people new to it. Although castings for Shakespeare are relatively rare, exercising with it re-charges all other work by flexing the voice and sharpening awareness of words.
It will explore …
How freeing your voice can free you into creativity with Shakespearean and other heightened classical text.
How the text will do much of the work of entering the psychology of the character provided you are in the right sort of zone.
How realism and naturalness can only be found through a voice that is truthful.
How a style that relates to today’s diverse society can be compatible with the formal qualities in the writing.
