About this Event
Always wanted to try your hand at Shakespeare but the language felt like TOO MUCH to get your head around? You're not alone!
This three-hour workshop explores approaches to the text that get you speaking it quickly and understanding it better than you ever thought you could. We'll begin with warm-ups with a focus on the voice and then explore a few techniques for engaging with text before working toward getting to the point where we can speak at the speed of thought - one of the key tenets of the Shakespeariment format.
Suitable for complete beginners or anyone looking for a refresher or new approaches.
Fee: 10/15€ - payment through eventbrite, or if you want to avoid fees, bring cash.
All proceeds go to the Tragical Mirth coffers - with our goal of funding a full Shakespearian production next year!
Led by Summer Banks, teacher of improv, voice and text for over ten years, and chairwoman of Tragical Mirth e.V., the producers of Shakespeariment - seen here as Antipholus of Syracuse at Monbijou Theater in July 2026. Photo credit: Nikita Kasatkin
