[NEohioPAL] "Free Will" Shakespeare Workshop with Dougfred Miller begins August 19th

Cleveland Shakespeare Festival cleveshakes at gmail.com
Tue Aug 13 12:23:02 PDT 2013


*The Cleveland Shakespeare Festival, in cooperation with Ensemble Theatre,
is pleased to offer, “Free Will Shakespeare,” *a three-session workshop
designed by Great Lakes Theatre actor Dougfred Miller, to free your
delivery of Shakespearean verse from the bonds of ink & paper by furthering
your ability to find and realize the tempestuous action from its various
clues.

 We will cover such things as

·      Readiness & conditioning.
·      Meter: why bother?
·      Letting the imagery do the work for us.
·      Where we all fit within the Great Chain of Being.

This workshop is ideally suited for anyone looking to expand their ability
to (or assuage their fear of) speaking verse, or participate in Great Lakes
Theater's upcoming auditions in September.

Having a monologue in verse from Shakespeare (or a contemporary) is
strongly recommended, though it does not have to be memorized for the first
class. A hardcopy of the monologue is a good idea; wearing flip-flops is a
bad one.

*Dougfred Miller *is an actor with more than 25 years professional
experience in classical theatre, in a career that has spanned the continent
and canon. As a company member of the Great Lakes Theater, he has played a
variety of Shakespeare's great roles, including Cassius, Jaques, Macbeth,
and most recently Dogberry in *Much Ado About Nothing*. For many other
theatres and Shakespeare Festivals, his work includes Richard III, Prince
Hal, Benedick and Prospero. He can currently be seen as King Arthur in the
Beck Center's production of *Spamalot*. Doug is a graduate of the
University of Delaware's PTTP and a member of Actors' Equity Association.
