Deckle Edge Workshop - Shakespeare for the Pre-Teen (& Families!)
About the Workshop:
EXPLORE, PARTICIPATE, AND CREATE MOMENTS OF SHAKESPEARE IN WORKSHOP FORMAT, GEARED FOR THE PRE-TEEN AND THEIR FAMILIES. EXPLORATION WILL UTILIZE A MULTI-FACETED ARTS FOCUS AND APPROACH.
Participants will be able to say "I CAN DO SHAKESPEARE!" or at least relieve some of the "performance anxiety" sometimes associated with his name. Secondary outcome will be a new familiarity with the events surrounding THE FIRST FOLIO VISIT AT USC and THE DESIRE TO SEE THE ACTUAL FIRST FOLIO IN APRIL 2016. This is a family event.
