About Program
Develop a deeper understanding of poetic drama with our popular summer intensive Shakespeare course.
Working with Elizabethan and Jacobean plays, you’ll attend daily classes and rehearsals, and engage with the language, style, and challenges of performing dramatic texts from these periods. In addition to the practical classes and rehearsals, you will attend specialist lectures on understanding the social and historical context of Shakespeare’s writing. You’ll also visit key historical locations central to Shakespeare’s life and work, as well as watching productions by the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) in Stratford-upon-Avon, the birthplace of William Shakespeare, and Shakespeare’s Globe.

Location
London, although typically regarded for its architecture and city lifestyle, is made up of 40% public green space in the form of incredibly lush parks. London has created an environment where you can spend the day enjoying city life and then escape to Primrose hill, the Thames, or a walk by the canals.
