Audition for The Old Globe Summer Intensive!

If you know an aspiring actor of high school age, tell them about the auditions for the summer Shakespeare Intensive at The Old Globe!
The auditions will be held on Saturday, March 19th and Sunday, March 20th on the campus of the Old Globe.  The Summer Intensive will be held on weekdays, July 18 – August 15.  The program cost is $600 with a limited number of need-based scholarships available. During the Intensive the students will study classical theater technique, voice, movement and stage combat led by theater professionals while rehearsing for two productions of Shakespeare’s plays.  The program will culminate with a performance of the plays in the outdoor Lowell Davies Festival Theatre on Monday, August 15th.  This year the students will perform 50-minute versions of both The Comedy of Errors and The Merry Wives of Windsor.  

The Intensive presents students with the unique opportunity to study Shakespeare while observing the productions of the Globe’s Shakespeare Festival, which runs concurrently with the program.  Festival company members are able to lend the students insights into the art of performing Shakespeare that they then apply to their own performances of the Bard’s work.  Last year, while rehearsing for their sold-out production of Shakespeare’s As You Like It and Twelfth Night, the students attended workshops conducted by Michael Stewart Allen, Don Carrier, Ray Chambers, Christian Durso and Adrian Sparks.
The Old Globe is located in San Diego’s Balboa Park at 1363 Old Globe Way.  There are numerous free parking lots available throughout the park.
