Shakesperience’s signature series of Shakespeare workshops is designed with several versions for various age and experience levels. Two actors lead the audience through Shakespeare's language and times, literary devices, and universally themed scenes featuring volunteer performers. This small group access to the Shakesperience Teaching Approach, and the balance of workshop and performance, allow for the highest levels of inclusiveness. This unique format permits the celebration of the spoken language and empowers students with confidence and public speaking skills. Rather than condescending to the audience, Shakesperience invites them to rise to the level of the language.
