A505: Class #A1: Stage Me to Their Eyes: The Theatre of Shakespeare in Cascade! Winter 2010 (Jan. 26, 2010)

Ever wondered why Shakespeare is so popular? Sure, cool insults like "glass-gazing, super-serviceable finical rogue" have some appeal (King Lear II.2), but what really inspires Will's fanclub today? In this class, we will share with you our passion for the Bard, and a wealth of experience in professional Shakespearean acting, starting with the basics of Shakespeare's language (what's the difference between "thy" and "thine", and WHAT ON EARTH does "anon" mean?), and leading into a close study of Shakespeare's infamous (and cursed) tragedy, Macbeth. We will focus on understanding the drama of the text, and how it comes to life in performance. "Suit the action to the word, the word to the action" (Hamlet, III.2).
