eSe Taller/ eSe Workshop: Acting for Shakespeare by Charise Castro Smith

A Two-Day Workshop: Saturday, May 17 4-7pm & Sunday, May 18 4-7pm

New to Shakespeare? Old buddies with the Bard? This short workshop will focus on breath, and a few key ideas to put in your pocket when you're working on verse.

A couple things asked of workshop participants- come prepared wearing clothes you feel comfortable moving in and bring something to write with. Also, please bring in memorized any two lines of Shakespeare that delight you.
