Additional information

Our young actors will explore and rehearse an abbreviated Shakespeare play, enjoying all the twists and turns of the plot as they take on the characters and elements of design. Each week will culminate with a performance on Friday.

ASP performs and works in found spaces, schools, theaters and neighborhoods to present and explore robust language, resonant stories, and deeply human characters. Our work is ensemble-­based and focused on intimacy, storytelling, language, relationships, voice, risk and artistry within and throughout the Boston area.
