Summary
The Old Globe’s third annual Summer Shakespeare Intensive for teens will conclude on Monday, August 16 at 8:00 p.m. with a bilingual (English/Spanish) performance of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night and As You Like It. The four week program began on July 19 and is a unique opportunity for local High School actors and actresses to refine their skills as performers in a professional setting. To celebrate the Globe’s 75th anniversary, this year the students will perform 50-minute versions of the two Shakespeare plays.
Throughout the Intensive, the students have the unique opportunity to study classical theater technique, voice, movement and stage combat while observing the productions of the Globe’s Shakespeare Festival, which runs concurrently with the program. Festival company members are able to lend the students insights into the art of performing Shakespeare that they then apply to their own performances of the Bard’s work.
Tickets are $9 for children and $13 for adults
