Shakespeare: From Page to Stage
About
Shakespeare’s texts are a gift to the actor who knows how to find the offered clues to performance. We will explore the text’s structure, its rhetorical devices, its verse, rhythm and sound; we will learn to trust the text as the source of what we need to know about character and action, within the context of Elizabethan culture and beliefs; then physical and text exercises will help bring the words to stage life. Liz’s goal is to give an approach to any new piece of text as a preparation for the real business of acting Shakespeare.
