Speaking the Speech

CeleBritain: Celebrating British Influence:

A Shakespeare "Crash Course" for Young Actors (and Non-Actors).

Shake off your "Shakes-Fear" and come play with some of the world's greatest poetry. Whether you're in love with the spotlight or just in love with Shakespeare's words, this exciting, interactive workshop will get you on your feet and speaking Shakespeare like a pro.

Accomplished theater professional and educator Jamie Brink (formerly of The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey) leads 90 minutes in which you'll explore some of Shakespeare's most famous lines and characters, and learn professional techniques for bringing them to life. Even if you've never acted before, this workshop will revolutionize the way you approach that next assignment from your teacher to read, say, Romeo and Juliet.

For teens 6th grade and up. Registration is required. Please call or stop by the Reference Desk.
