"Thank you so much for the amazing acting experiences we all shared. LAMDA's magnificent directing and teaching brought out a professionalism in me and inspired me towards my fullest potential in the acting process. Just as you said, I surprised myself!"
"On this course, I learnt more about acting and especially Shakespeare than my three years at university combined. The small class sizes and focussed environment are perfect for creating and refining the art of theatre. This course has raised the bar for any theatre course I attend in the future."
This popular course is designed for students wishing to work on an intensive Shakespearean programme with the LAMDA faculty. The aim is to demystify Shakespeare: to prevent poetic drama seeming an unscalable mountain and to make the student as comfortable with this kind of drama as he or she is with naturalistic work.
We make Shakespeare accessible through the disciplines of textual analysis, history seminars and above all instruction in techniques to help the development of voice and body with special emphasis on their relation to the Elizabethan and Jacobean periods.
