APPLE SHAKES PRESENTS:
ROMEO AND JULIET!

About our Shakes Program: This class is a non-musical class introducing the works of William Shakespeare to middle and high school aged participants. (AGES 11 - 18) Participants learn the historical context and performance practices of Elizabethan actors as well as the rehearsal process of the time. A large portion of classes for the first two months places an emphasis on the verse and delivery of the prose and verse of the script. Participants are cast in rolls in the second month to begin the traditional “rehearsal” process while using games as skill builders as well as Shakespearean Insult, Stage Combat, voice, and theatrical make-up workshops. Rehearsed for a long period of time to encourage full textural understanding, performance confidence and polish.

About Romeo and Juliet: An age-old vendetta between two powerful families erupts into bloodshed. A group of masked Montagues risk further conflict by gatecrashing a Capulet party. A young lovesick Romeo Montague falls instantly in love with Juliet Capulet, who is due to marry her father’s choice, the County Paris. With the help of Juliet’s nurse, the women arrange for the couple to marry the next day, but Romeo’s attempt to halt a street fight leads to the death of Juliet’s own cousin, Tybalt, for which Romeo is banished. Will Romeo be reunited with his Juliet? “Aye, there’s the rub.”
