“If Shakespeare be the food of summer, rhyme on, Give me excess of it!”
The Freewill Shakespeare Festival is once again bringing Summer Drama Camps to the Amphitheatre in Hawrelak Park. Working with professional actors/instructors and artists from the 2009 Summer Repertory Company, participants will explore the story, text, characters, design, stage combat and music from of the main-stage production Comedy of Errors . Their work will culminate in a weekend presentation/sharing on the main-stage for friends and family after which all will be invited to stay for refreshments and mingle with artists from the Festival. Those who wish may then stay for that afternoon's performance.
Register early to secure a space in the class of your choice.
