Shakespeare for Kids program starts this Saturday
Looking for some dramatic fun for your child this fall? This is a great opportunity for children aged 7 to 12 to explore the world of magic, wizards, potions, ghosts, swords and witches in some of the greatest stories ever told.
Actors and teachers from the Shakespeare in Action Theatre Company coach and instruct kids in learning and playing theatre games, developing play-reading skills, creating and acting in scenes and more.
Children read a selection of the following Shakespeare plays, abridged by Artistic Director Michael Kelly: The Comedy of Errors, Julius Caeser, Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, Twelfth Night, A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Tempest.
This free program is offered on six consecutive Saturdays this fall from November 5 to December 10 and is two hours in length.
