advanced shakespeare workshop

Summer day camp for teens with acting experience, ages 11-18

The Advanced Shakespeare Workshop is our conservatory-style program for ages 11-18. Enrollment in this program requires previous acting experience and an audition submission. (Returning ASW actors are not required to audition – simply email us at camps@sfshakes.org to request the enrollment link.)

Participants take a deep dive into the themes and language of Shakespeare and engage in a thorough examination of character motives and objectives, along with intensive voice, movement, text, and monologue work. The program culminates in an hour-long performance, to which family and friends are invited.

2023 Advanced Shakespeare Workshop sessions have not been announced yet.  Check back here or Sign Up to be notified when new sessions are added.

YOU NOW HAVE THE OPTION TO ENROLL IN A 3-WEEK OR 4-WEEK SESSION!
This is a 4-week program with the first week consisting of skills-based, specialized instruction, but for those unable to join for all 4 weeks, rehearsals for the play won’t start until the second week, so the 3-week option is right for you!

PLEASE EMAIL YOUR AUDITION SUBMISSION.
Please email to camps@sfshakes.org a video audition consisting of a 1 – 2 minute Shakespeare monologue, preferably shot waist up or full body with good lighting and sound. We will contact you for an interview. Submissions will be considered in the order that they are received. Past ASW students do not need to send a video but should send an email expressing their interest.

NOTE: Enrollment capacity for this program is limited to 15.
