The Edward C. Gartland Youth Centre will offer a week of Shakespeare Summer Workshops from Aug. 1-6 to introduce and explore several contrasting works of Shakespeare with interested youth of Turks and Caicos Islands, ages 12-18.

Instructors Scott Cannon and Susan Cade will examine Shakespeare’s diction and meter, the meaning of his Elizabethan phrases, and the presentation of his immortal lines. Several shortened plays will be read, acted, directed and staged with minimal props.

All workshops will include acting games, speaking and diction skills, staging and presentation. The week will culminate in a performance of Romeo and Juliet, introducing a Renaissance dance, sword fighting skills and mask making.
