Well NOW'S YOUR CHANCE!
Sign up for the Grassroots Shakespeare Company's next workshop, JULIUS CAESAR, today. Just send an email to workshop@grassrootsshakespeare.com and we'll take care of the rest!
Whatever your experience level, you're invited to come and try your hand at one of Shakespeare's most famous tragedies. Chris Clark, professor of theatre at UVU, will be there to give us the skinny on Elizabethan acting, and Matt Carlin, our resident fight choreographer, will be sharing his expertise as well. We're working hard to make sure this is our highest quality workshop to date, so make sure to come and invite your friends and family!
Now, if you're new to this whole "grassroots" thing, let me explain:
We're crazy. Once you know that, the rest of it makes a lot more sense. See, we're trying to produce Shakespeare plays in a process similar to that used by Shakespeare's original actors. They only had a couple weeks to memorize their lines, and a few hours of group rehearsal, before performing their furiously fast and witty plays. Our workshops approximate that process. You are given a few roles from different scenes, which you memorize on your own. Then, on the day of the workshop, you simply come play. It's fast, fun, improvisational, and unique. And it's totally safe. Go big, and the audience will love you for it. Fail big - they'll love you for that, too.
If you're interested in learning more about us, email me at Mark@GrassrootsShakespeare.com and I'd be happy to answer any of your questions.
Go Grassroots!
