Radio Shakespeare Lab
Working to create a complete radio play library of Shakespeare's canon. Each play is voiced by actors from across the country and incorporates sound effects and original music.
Tabling: The Podcast
Each play has five-six episodes of “table work” discussions. “Table work” is a precious time in the rehearsal process for the ensemble to ask questions, analyze the text, and delve into character work.
Favorite Lines from Shakespeare Project
During this time of COVID-19 as the world lives and breathes in isolation, I was looking for a way for us to share. Share our voices, share our breath, share words, words, words.
On April 13, 2020, I sent out a call for folks to send in a favorite line from Shakespeare so I could compile them for April 23, the traditional celebratory day of all things Shakespeare! This video represents the first rendering of this project.
Favorite lines in this video include excerpts from 25 of Shakespeare's plays, 2 sonnets, & Venus & Adonis, his first narrative poem.
