“Violent Delights have Violent Ends”: Performing Shakespeare’s Violence
April 23 @ 4:00 pm - 8:00 pm EDT
$75.00 – $100.00
“These violent delights have violent ends, And in their triumph die like fire and powder, Which as they kiss consume.”
–Romeo & Juliet
This seminar will take a special look at performing violence in the works of Shakespeare.
The seminar will begin with an introduction (or review, depending on experience level) of reading and interpreting the text with a scene provided beforehand. Participants will then use that knowledge to inform their choices in bringing the scene to life and finally adding choreogrpahy and performing the scene.
This seminar is a great opportunity for performers of all skill levels!
