ARTS 390 001 Third-Year Topics in Arts: Voice & Text at Stratford Festival

This is a course focusing on acting the language of Shakespeare. It is practical in its philosophy and its application: wholly designed to give the aspiring actor a handful of tools with which to explore, personalize and perform Shakespeare’s text. It is not, therefore, a theoretical course or a study of Shakespeare as dramatic literature.

Block Course (May 5-17)

[Note: This course will be taught on location at Stratford, Ontairo. Students must provide their own transportation to and from Stratford to attend the course meetings and the Stratford plays on the course schedule.]
