Professional actors, directors and playwrights bring their artistic experience and exceptional skills into your classroom and immerse students in Shakespeare’s plays for a minimum of five days.

Our teaching artists help students develop a personal connection to the plays of Shakespeare through process and ensemble-driven theater games that focus on language, body expression and character exploration.

Each student is given the opportunity to interact with Shakespeare’s text and themes on a daily basis during the residency.
