The
newly formed nonprofit organization, The Shakespeare Institute of Nevada, has
recently launched a series of affordable acting workshops for Southern Nevada
residents. The Actor Workshops focus on teaching students to try new material
and prepare audition pieces, while receiving feedback from professional actors
and directors. The mission of the workshop is to provide a place for aspiring,
as well as veteran actors to learn new acting techniques, vocal and breathing
exercises, and equip students with the tools of success for the industry.
Seasoned
actress Jenn Bemis, who has performed in numerous productions in the USA, UK
and Denmark, leads the Workshops. Bemis most recently directed and taught
Shakespeare in Bali at the Institute Seni Indonesia and at the World Arts
Festival. The author of the highly
regarded text on scriptwriting entitled “Anatomy of a Screenplay” and
nationally recognized authority on Shakespeare, Dan Decker, serves as the
Executive Director of the Shakespeare Institute.
MORE
INFORMATION: The Actor Workshops fee is $80 for 10 classes. The first class is
free to audit. For further information and to register, email
ShakesInstNV@gmail.com, or call (702) 896-9517.
The
Shakespeare Institute of Nevada also facilitates a Clark County School district
outreach program and delivers scenes and actor interaction to hundreds of
school students. Actors, directors and company members donate their time to
help educate our local children about the wonders of theater and the genius of
Shakespeare.
The
Actor Workshops are suitable for actors of all ages and all levels to
participate.
