2010 Summer Shakespeare Intensive

This summer The Old Globe will provide a unique and exciting opportunity for High School-aged actors and actresses from San Diego County to refine their skills as performers and perform at The Old Globe.

Students selected for The Old Globe Summer Shakespeare Intensive will study classical theatre technique, voice, movement, stage combat and more while rehearsing for a bi-lingual (Spanish/English) production of two of Shakespeare’s plays in honor of The Old Globe’s 75th Anniversary.
