The ISC cultivates an understanding and love of Shakespeare by partnering with international, national, and local organizations. Our collaboration with the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA), the oldest acting conservatory in England, has brought world-class teaching artists to Santa Fe. We also collaborate with Ducdame Ensemble, an award-winning NYC acting company founded by graduates of LAMDA's program, "Masters in Classical Acting for the Professional Theater." The ISC has just kicked off its Year of Lear http://www.internationalshakespeare.center/a-year-of-lear/ with activities and events for all ages that begin in September 2017 and culminate in a performance of King Lear in September 2018.
