In preparation for their fall 2013 run of Shakespeare’s Macbeth, The City Shakespeare Company (City Shakes) will spend Saturday August 3rd exploring the play through movement work, discussion, and an intimate exploration of the text. The workshop culminates in a free, public performance of their work at 6:00 pm.
“This workshop is designed to help our ensemble become more familiar with the essence of the story. We’re finding the ceremony of the play,” says Allison Volk, co-founder and City Shakes actress. She and seven collaborators will make up the day’s group.
“We’ll read, we’ll speak, we’ll play, move, act, create, and explore,” states Brooke Bishop, co-founder of the company and resident director. “And we can’t wait.”
Macbeth: A Ceremony is open and free to the public at 6:00 pm on Saturday, August 3rd at The Huffington Center, part of the St. Sophia Cathedral complex. 1324 S Normandie Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90006. Parking is free. http://cityshakes.org/
