Check out our “Macbeth” cast getting schooled in a movement workshop with guest artist, Michael Boyle.

At last week’s Tuesday evening rehearsal of Macbeth, we welcomed Michael Boyle, member of AEA and SAG-AFTRA, and co-founder of Theatre on Main Street in Washingtonville, NY, for an immersive workshop exploring Lee Strasberg’s Animal Exercise.

The Animal Exercise is an indispensable tool towards a deeper physical characterization of a role. It is a balanced outside-in/inside-out approach to acting and creating characters. It has been utilized by actors such as Marlon Brando, Claire Danes, Anthony Hopkins, and Lee J. Cobb.

Our cast chose an animal for their character in the play and explored the physical characterization, movement, and behavior of their chosen animal to deepen their understanding of and relationship to their character. Some animals chosen by cast members include a Scottish wolfhound, a spider, a toad, a sea lion, and a hawk.

We look forward to seeing you under the tent July 11, 12, 18, and 19 for our production of William Shakespeare’s “Macbeth!” 🗡️🩸👑

What’s up next at Cornerstone Theatre Arts’ Staged Reading Series, sponsored by Goshen Public Library and Historical Society —

Charged with running the understudy rehearsal for the production, Roxanne finds her professional and personal life colliding when Harry, a journeyman actor and her ex-fiancé, is cast as the understudy to Jake, a mid-tier action star yearning for legitimacy. As Harry and Jake find their common ground, Roxanne tries to navigate the rehearsal with a stoned lightboard operator, an omnipresent intercom system, the producers threatening to shutter the show and her own careening feelings about both actors and her past.

Will the show go on?

Come and find out this Saturday, May 30th at 2pm at the Goshen Public Library!

“On Golden Pond,” now in its final weekend! Don’t snooze on this one! Do you have your tickets?? 🎟️ 🎭

Cornerstone Theatre Arts proudly presents “On Golden Pond,” by Ernest Thompson, featuring John Klemeyer and Carol MacAdam, with Rohan Fortugno-Harris, Russ Goebel, Taylor James, and Sara Johnson.

“On Golden Pond” is a poignant comedic drama about Ethel and Norman Thayer, an elderly couple spending their 48th summer at their Maine vacation home.

Set in the 70’s, this timeless play focuses on the themes of aging, the generation gap, and familial reconciliation, highlighting the witty, loving bond between Ethel and the difficult Norman.

Performances are May 15 & 16 at 7pm & the 17 at 2pm (with the door opening 30 minutes prior to the show), at the Goshen Music Hall, 223 Main St. Goshen, NY. (Please note this is a historic building with a second floor walk up and is not handicap accessible.)
