Alt-Theatre / Alt-Shakes

WORKSHOPS

​

****************************************

On the back of the experience we've gleaned on our journey to date,

we are excited to announce a new training opportunity!

​

These Zoom sessions have been running weekly since April 2020.

Out of this has come a staged new piece of Alt-Shakespeare,

Romeo & Juliet: The Confessions featuring 3 actors who

were part of these Zoom sessions.

​​

Another play, Lady Macbeth (alone) is currently being workshopped.

​​

​This is what we're going to do . . .

​

​Together to understand how Shakespeare might have

created his Theatre by working collaboratively.

​​​

Take the existing Shakespeare plays and apply

the Alt-Theatre methods.

​​

Isolate his characters, themes, speeches, lines,

scenes etc from their original setting​.

​​

Workshop the text in new ways via Zoom to discover

how it works and bring it to theatrical life.

​​

Recreate new Shakespeare work out of old Shakespeare plays.

​

Bring our own experiences of the world

to enrich our creative process.

​​​​​

The Workshops are for . . .

​

People who want to work collaboratively to push the

limits of their Theatre skills and development.

​

Actors who want to immerse themselves in the fun and

excitement of bringing Shakespeare's words to life.

​

Workshopping alternative ways of presenting classical Theatre

to resonate with today's world around us.

​

Creating new plays for stage performances,

books, audio pieces, videos etc.

​​

Providing workshop and performance material for our

Alt-Shakespeare podcasts (launching this year).​
