Storytelling is what makes us human – it’s how we talk about the world and our place in it. Teachers, writers, actors, parents, presenters – everyone needs to be able to tell a story. In this six week class, you’ll have fun getting on your feet to share your stories with your classmates. We’ll focus on how to structure and develop a story. Then, we'll learn how to perform it in ways that engage your audience; whether it’s in a theater, a classroom, conference setting, or around the kitchen table.
For beginning or seasoned adult actors, playwrights, writers, directors, educators, entrepreneurs, and leaders of organizations. 18+

Introduction to Acting: Shakespeare w/ Steve Kidd
March 25 - May 6
7 IN PERSON SESSIONS
Saturdays 9am - 12pm
Tuition: $300
Participants under 18 must provide proof of guardian permission.
This class requires no previous acting experience or familiarity with Shakespeare. It is an invitation to actors and non-actors interested in learning methods for truthful performances of his characters. It is also a class that welcomes students who have been led to believe that Shakespeare's language is inaccessible and his works are beyond their capabilities. Weekly lessons will clearly detail strategies for understanding, interpreting and personalizing classical text. Participants will observe and discuss techniques before putting them into practice in supportive parings and small groups. Lessons will build upon each other using monologues and scenes from some of Shakespeare’s greatest plays. Outside of class, students will be expected to do a minimal amount of homework each week including memorization and preparation. Each member of our "classroom company" will walk away with a scene and/or monologue that they have explored in a variety of ways, skills to apply their knowledge to future encounters with Shakespeare and a warm new community of friends and learners.
For questions, please contact Education Coordinator Jess Corsentino at jc@gammtheatre.org or 401.723.4266 ext 122
