This January, we offer a combo of Shakespeare verse workshops and stage combat classes. Classes are 90 minutes and take place at our indoor stage at Greystone Hall.

Take one or both. These make great experience gifts for the Shakespeare (or stage combat!) fan in your life.

Verse Workshops

Monday Jan 8, 7pm

Saturday Jan 13, 12pm

Join Artist Director Terry Burgler and Assoc. Artistic Director Tess Burgler for 90 minutes of acting work focused on Shakespeare’s text. Learn to approach verse naturally (no more “Shakespeare voice”) and lose any Shakesfear you may have. We will look at ways that verse and heightened language help the actor make strong and exciting choices using John Barton’s method of text analysis. This class will be beneficial to novices and experienced actors alike. (The same workshop is held on both dates. Please choose one to attend.)

Verse class is best for ages 12 and older.

Stage Combat Class

Saturday Jan 6, 12pm

Monday Jan 15, 7pm

Join Resident Fight Director Ryan Zarecki for an introduction to stage combat class. 90 minutes of learning the safety and partnering techniques to make stage violence look real (and real cool) in an environment where collaboration, communication, and consent are paramount. Students will learn basics of footwork, slaps, punches, falls, and beginning sword play. (The same workshop is held on both dates. Please choose one to attend.)

Stage combat student must be 14+ years old. No exceptions—sorry!
