Returning to NYC for a 3rd Successful Year!!
Developed at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, former Head of MFA Acting and Senior Acting Tutor, Geoffrey Brumlik, and former leader of MFA Professional Development, Kate Siepert will be again presenting this intensive 3-day Shakespeare Masterclass in New York this November.
This innovative workshop was developed as an extension of the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School's intensive MFA Shakespeare training and became a central part of that program. It uniquely combines conservatoire-level voice, text, and acting training, with a focus on helping actors develop a more active, engaged, and human relationship with Shakespeare’s text.

This will be our fourth time holding this very popular intensive NYC, alongside the very successful events held yearly in Chicago and LA.
The intensive is most suited to those with some background experience with Shakespeare and is meant to provide that essential next step to those who are looking to move their work to a new level and discover a richer creative freedom within the structure of his work.
