“Central to my technique…is the actor’s understanding of the epic size of theater – in the body, in the voice, in the mind, and in the soul – an understanding that Shakespeare forces actors to embrace their whole selves by exploring man’s Promethean battle with God, fate, and his own personal demons.” – Stella Adler

In response to Stella Adler’s profound insight into the vital importance of Shakespeare to the life of the actor, and the life of her Studio, we have organized an advanced summer intensive.

Broadway actor and Co-Head of Acting Steve Maurice Jones will be leading the intensive teaching Classical Scene Study. Alongside Mr. Jones is Broadway Fight Director J. Steven White, one of the country’s leading stage combat instructors and Andrew Wade, former head of voice at the Royal Shakespeare Company. Other core classes include Verse & Text, Movement, and Voice & Speech. Classes are supplemented by weekly master classes with industry leaders and academics. Offered in the summer only, this is a five-week, 30-hour per week intensive designed for the advanced actor to further develop his/her sense of the epic size of theater.
