Shakespeare Workshops
What is this I hear about Shakespeare?
The Carnegie Players are hosting a FREE Shakespeare Experience, sponsored by the Indiana Arts Commission! Learn all about the Bard of Avon and his works in four evenings of workshops, followed by an opportunity to be in a performance showcasing some of his plays! Whether you just want to expand your Shakespearean knowledge, or you want to experience playing one of his characters, these workshops are for you!

The workshops will include four sessions of general instruction about the Bard; who he was, how to understand the language, and how he is relevant today. These will take place January 6th, 8th, 13th, and 15th. 6-8:30pm. They are free to attend, but registration is required.
I want to act in the show
At the conclusion of the workshops, those who wish to be in a show will be given parts in selections of the Bard's work, to be rehearsed every Tuesday and Thursday, 6-8:30pm from January 20th - February 20th, with a full week of rehearsals the last week of February, culminating in a performance.
