Join us for opening (and closing) night for the Summer Shakespeare Studio Class of 2024! Our gifted high school students are presenting their culminating event - a showcase of Shakespeare scenes, original music, movement, and performance all on the theme of Finding Your Voice. After four long weeks of hard work, bonding, and learning, we hope you can attend a night full of celebration and insight.

The four-week program is a unique opportunity for rising 10th – 12th graders and recent graduates committed to developing foundational skills for reading, interpreting, and performing Shakespeare’s plays and cultivating their artistic voice through creating original material.

Pam Farr Summer Shakespeare Studio students receive an intensive curriculum of acting, movement, music, voice and speech, and stage combat. Through guided sessions in devising original performance, students explore the relationship and relevancy of Shakespeare's textual themes to their current lives. In addition, students have opportunities to work with Old Globe artisans on aspects of design and technical theatre, and gain exposure to the theatre business through a series of professional development sessions with Old Globe staff in a variety of departments.
