DETAILS
Are you intimidated by Shakespeare? Want to prepare a Shakespeare monologue and don't know know where to start?
Learning Hamlet consists of 12 highly engaging 2 hours lectures where each class focuses on every aspect of Shakespeare’s craft. Students will learn and practice foundational principles of acting, textual analysis, verse, characterization, themes, imagery, and meaning.
Each class dissects an entire play from beginning to end. In the past, we have explored King Lear, Hamlet, Macbeth, The Tempest, Twelfth Night, Midsummer Night's Dream, and Shakespeare's monologues. Each class culminates in a final reading of the play - putting the lessons of the previous lessons into action.
Pricing: $149 for the entire course

"I’ve had the privilege of training all over the world in incredibly rigorous intensives. Nowhere else have I had a training experience as simultaneously profound and practical as at Patrick Page Studio. The studio is built not only to hold people to the highest standard of their craft and ability, but is also built to be a home."

Learning Shakespeare kept my artist soul filled up during the pandemic. Patrick's spirit, honestly and kindness made me feel supported and challenged. He inspired me to look more deeply into the text, which led me to grow as a person. I can’t recommend the studio highly enough.

“Thank you for the transformative experience of Learning Shakespeare. It transported me in ways I could have never imagined and are too numerous to list here. As Patrick stated, reading the great works changes us as human beings, and this class certainly did so for me! You both took such great care of us, and your passions and commitments to teaching and facilitating were evident at every turn.”
