Shakespeare Intensive

"Central to my technique…is the actor's understanding of the epic size of theater – in the body, in the voice, in the mind, and in the soul – an understanding that Shakespeare forces actors to embrace their whole selves by exploring man's Promethean battle with God, fate, and his own personal demons.”
– Stella Adler

The master teacher for this important intensive is James Tripp, our Head of Acting, whom Stella Adler personally selected to teach Shakespeare. Teaching alongside Mr. Tripp is J. Steven White, one of the country’s leading stage combat instructors and Andrew Wade, former head of voice at the Royal Shakespeare Company. Offered in the summer only, this is a six-week, 30-hour per week intensive.
