We offer on-stage pre-show sessions with members of the acting company and creative teams which explore how Shakespeare's text has been brought to life in our current productions.
These sessions highlight the range of interpretive choices that the text offers the director and actors in rehearsal and in performance. Students will have the opportunity to ask questions about the production.
