Description

In this course, students delve into the physical, vocal, and emotional demands of acting Shakespeare. Always mindful that the plays were written for performance, topics for discussion include: the information in the texts for actors and directors; how the verse works; and how actors balance the reality of the story with Shakespeare’s heightened language and demanding characters. This upper-level course is restricted to sophomores, juniors, and seniors. Prerequisites: THE 225 and THE 203.
