Shakespeare And Company to Hold Fall Weekend Intensive Workshops
Shakespeare & Company's Weekend Intensives integrate voice, movement, and monologue work.
Shakespeare & Company's Center for Actor Training has revealed its 2025 line-up of fall weekend intensive workshops, including sessions in New York City, Los Angeles, and at the company's campus in Lenox, Mass.
Designed for professional actors and theater students who seek an introduction to Shakespeare & Company's training methods, as well as alumni who wish to refresh and reconnect with the work, Shakespeare & Company's Weekend Intensives integrate voice, movement, and monologue work. Sheila Bandyopadhyay, director of the Center for Actor Training, explained that Weekend Intensives are a great way for people to attune themselves to their bodies, voices, and imaginative impulses in connection to text.
"Our weekend intensives are open to all who are curious about speaking Shakespeare. In addition to seasoned performers, directors, and educators, we often welcome people who love Shakespeare but are new to acting. It's a welcoming environment," she said.
Upcoming Weekend Intensives run October through December, including:
NYC Weekend Intensive Saturday, Oct. 4 and Sunday, Oct. 5;
LA Weekend Intensive, Saturday, Oct. 18 and Sunday, Oct. 19;
Lenox Weekend Intensive, Saturday, Nov. 8 and Sunday, Nov. 9, and
