Swordplay and Shakespeare go hand-in-hand. Join Ohio Shakespeare’s resident certified fight choreographer Ryan Zarecki for an exploration of stage combat as it relates to the works of the Bard. In this two day workshop, learn the fighting techniques used by OSF to bring Shakespeare’s battles to life with an emphasis on safety, creativity, story-telling, and accuracy.
Open to ages 14 and over.

A monologue-centered acting class, join Ohio Shakespeare Festival for a two day workshop focusing on verse, direct audience address, expression through consonants and vowels, and other classical acting techniques. Participants will not only emerge with an audition-ready Shakespeare monologue, but also the tools to decipher the acting clues hidden in Shakespeare's texts.

Open to all ages.
