Shakespeare Workshop and Showcase for Students

A 5-day workshop will be held at the Sol Theatre in downtown Boca Raton on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays between 5 pm and 8 pm from September 2 to Wednesday September 11. Then, on the night of Friday, September 13, students will showcase the work at a fundraiser for the Shakespeare Troupe's 10th season. Students are trained to make the clues and cues for acting found in the text work for themselves in an authentic way. Read details of this event and RSVP here. 

The program is led by Shakespeare Troupe Founder, Peter W. Galman, and culminates on Friday, September 13, with a Staged Reading showcase for workshop graduates. Showcase participation is FREE.

OBJECTIVE: The workshops are meant to train actors to learn the rules of verse, to tune the voice and body to speak and move creatively with the lines, and to get guidance in creating believable action while portraying characters onstage to an audience.

FOCUS: We will work from the texts of our repertory found in the Shakespeare Troupe workbook on speaking verse. Students will be assigned speeches and scenes and will be guided by Troupe teaching artists for presentation at the showcase.

EMPLOYMENT: Shakespeare Troupe is preparing for a December production of Macbeth at Sol Theatre. Internships in all phases of production will be offered. A transportation stipend is included with acceptance.

BENEFITS: A 50-page workbook is included in the price. The book is filled with "$100 tips" and is something you can use in all speaking roles. Participation in the Troupe showcase leads to confidence in your ability and workshop training aids in securing work elsewhere..You'll meet and play alongside industry artists at the SHOWCASE on Friday, September 13, from 6 PM - 9 PM, at Sol Theatre, Boca Raton. Discounts on tickets will be available for friends and family who wish to attend the fundraiser and support you.
