€0A 2-hour masterclass exploring the actor’s approach to Shakespeare, led by Director of the Gaiety School, Will Wollen. So much has been written about Shakespeare from an academic perspective that it’s easy to forget that many of his original audience couldn’t read or write. In this session you’ll explore how much the pressure to ‘be clever’ when approaching Shakespeare can really get in the way of finding the plays afresh. We’ll look at how the circumstances in which Shakespeare was writing can help us unlock his plays, and how we need to remember to be actors not professors! This session is appropriate for those with any level of experience of Shakespeare – from loads to none! -
