Think Shakespeare is boring or hard to understand? Think again! In this fun and fast-paced class, students will dive into the world of William Shakespeare through games, movement, and accessible scene work. We’ll break down famous characters, explore dramatic themes, and uncover the humor, heart, and high-stakes drama in Shakespeare’s plays—all in language that makes sense. As students build confidence in speaking Shakespeare’s words, they’ll work toward performing a monologue or scene from one of his plays, bringing the Bard to life with bold choices and no fear. Whether you’re a total beginner or already a Shakespeare superfan, this class will leave you saying, “All the world’s a stage!”
