with Elizabeth Shepherd
Locations: NYC
Audition Required: One Shakespeare Monologue, no longer than 90 seconds
HOLDING THE MIRROR UP TO NATURE – SHAKESPEARE’S REALISM
Ideal for working professionals and graduates to explore more deeply how Shakespeare creates his characters so vividly because of his own experience as an actor as well as playwright. We shall take Hamlet’s Advice to the Players to heart, and understand it is Shakespeare’s profound understanding of human nature that makes him our contemporary. The readiness is all when walking on stage ‘in character’ in a Shakespeare play.
