“The Shakespeare Theatre Company is proud to offer students the opportunity to study with working professionals. Our theatre is committed to providing a dynamic approach to acting the classics, affording actors the opportunity to explore and develop the tools needed to perform texts by Shakespeare and other playwrights of the classic repertory.”

- Michael Kahn, Artistic Director

Don’t just watch theatre—experience it!

This fall, the Education Department of the Shakespeare Theatre Company is pleased to offer an exciting array of Master Acting Classes designed to engage students of all levels with the art and craft of theatre. Taught by working professionals, award-winning actors and veterans of the Shakespeare Theatre Company stage, Master Acting Classes offers a unique menu of training opportunities in scene study, voice and movement, text analysis, audition monologues and more.

Unlike programs that prescribe a predetermined track of courses or a long list of prerequisites before one can enroll, the Master Acting Class program trusts students to determine their individual journeys at a pace that can conveniently fit into life and work schedules. To ensure that students enjoy a quality experience, we have provided some guidance regarding appropriate skill level and limit class sizes to make sure each student receives individualized attention. Whether you’re a theatre enthusiast who is ready to jump into the action, a business professional looking to liven up their next presentation or a practicing theatre artist seeking specialized training in performing the classics, we have just the right course for you!
