Spooky Shakespeare Scenes
Instructed by: Hannah-Jane Dakin
Ages 12-17
Tuesdays/Thursdays: 4-6pm
October 13-November 14
Performance: November 14
Tuition: $350
During this 5-week class, students will explore scenes featuring some of Shakespeare’s
most well-known ghosts, witches, fairies and supernatural characters that will culminate
in a performance of the spookiest scenes that Shakespeare has to offer! Scenes for this
class will be pulled from plays such as Macbeth, Hamlet, Richard III, A Midsummer
Night’s Dream and The Tempest. Students will work with each other, bringing the
scenes to life on the stage in collaborative ensemble pieces and solo scenes. This class
will give theatre students the opportunity to learn about verse, language, theme and
character through Shakespeare’s most delightfully ghoulish and haunting works!
