The Intensive will take place on Saturday, July 14, Sunday, July 15 and on weekdays from July 16 through August 13. The program will culminate with a performance in the outdoor Lowell Davies Festival Theatre on Monday, August 13. The program cost is $650 with a limited number of need-based scholarships available. Auditions are by appointment only. For more information, please visit www.TheOldGlobe.org/SummerIntensive or email GlobeLearning@TheOldGlobe.org.
Students in the Summer Shakespeare Intensive study classical theater technique, voice, movement and stage combat led by theater professionals while rehearsing for two productions of Shakespeare's plays. Throughout the Intensive, the students have the unique opportunity to study Shakespeare and see the productions of the Globe's Shakespeare Festival, which runs concurrently with the program. Festival company members lend the students insights into the art of performing Shakespeare that the students then apply to their own performances of the Bard's work.
Registration begins on March 1 for the Middle School Summer Conservatory, a three-week program of intense acting study with professional teaching staff and actors from the Shakespeare Festival's repertory company. Students will explore scene study, stage combat, theatre games, improvisation, movement and specialty workshops. The Conservatory will take place on weekdays, July 9 - 27. The program cost is $600 ($550 for subscribers) and does not require an audition, though a passion for theatre and acting is important. For more information or to register for the Conservatory, email GlobeLearning@TheOldGlobe.org.
Registration is also now open for the March 10, 17, 24 and 31 sessions of Theatre Tots, a highly imaginative introduction to the magic of theater for children ages 4 - 7. Theatre Tots students are divided into groups featuring age-appropriate activities and introduced to the elements of story, voice, movement and imagination through an interactive read-aloud story time. Parents return for the last 15 minutes of class to watch them perform a short presentation of the story of the day. For more information or to sign up for one or more Theatre Tots sessions, email GlobeLearning@TheOldGlobe.org.
Theatre Tots sessions for 4 and 5 year olds are different on each date, and children can attend one or more classes throughout the month. Each of these sessions costs $20 per class, with a 10% discount for enrollment in three or more classes.
Theatre Tots classes for 6 and 7 year olds take place over the course of four weeks and are continuous as students work each week on a final presentation at the end of the month. The cost for these sessions is $100 for a set of four classes.
