Are you intrigued by Shakespeare’s works but not sure how to interpret the text? Do you want to audition for Powerhouse’s 2019 Ozone Festival entry Macbeth but haven’t yet done a Shakespeare play? Are you well versed in the Bard and simply want another opportunity to spend a day with him? Then this workshop is for you!
Open to all levels of theatre experience, this introductory, hands on workshop is designed to give participants an understanding of Shakespearean language and learn skills required to bring his texts to life on stage. Participants will explore Shakespeare using scenes from four of his most well-known and popular works – Romeo & Juliet, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Twelfth Night and Richard III.
The goal of the workshop is to provide participants – both actors and production personnel - with a better understanding of Shakespearean text, allowing them to confidently participate in a Shakespeare production.

Matt Brown is an Okanagan based award winning director and actor who has worked with Powerhouse theatre many times, including on Becky’s New Car, The Woman in Black, and Unnecessary Farce. He will be directing Shakespeare’s Macbeth for Powerhouse Theatres Ozone Festival entry in 2019.
