Ensemble Shakespeare Theater

Ensemble Shakespeare Theater A theatrical ensemble dedicated to professional and engaging readings of the works of Shakespeare Hamlet III-2

"Speak the speech I pray you as I pronounced it to you, trippingly on the tongue; but if you mouth it as many of your players do, I had as lief the town-crier spoke my lines. Nor do not saw the air too much with your hand thus, but use all gently; for in the very torrent, tempest, and, as I may say, whirlwind of your passion, you must acquire and beget a temperance that may give it smoothness...
"

Be not too tame neither, but let your own discretion be your tutor. Suit the action to the word, the word to the action, with this special observance, that you o'erstep not the modesty of nature. For anything so o'erdone is from the purpose of playing, whose end both at the first and now, was and is, to hold as 'twere, the mirror up to nature; to show virtue her own feature, scorn her own image, and the very age and body of the time his form and pressure...
"Go make you ready."

The Ensemble's Acting for Neuroatypical Actors class made an original documentary short! After touring the festival circuit, it's here to watch for free!
Made in collaboration with The Lineage Performing Arts Center, starring students in our Acting for Parkinson's, MS, TBI and stroke class, and facilitated by the Ensemble's artistic director Brian Elerding, the film is an inspiring look at what it means to be "wired differently".
