Santa Cruz Veterans Memorial Building

Spots Available for Santa Cruz Shakespeare’s Summer Intensive Santa Cruz Shakespeare is offering a new summer Shakespeare intensive program for high school students, ages 14-18, Monday, July 8 - Friday, July 12, 9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.. Students will be guided through practical exercises to prepare them to take center stage in an abridged version of As You Like It to be performed on stage Saturday, July 13 at 10:00 a.m. at Santa Cruz Shakespeare’s Audrey Stanley Grove (The Grove) in Santa Cruz’s DeLaveaga Park. The high school summer program, which takes place at the Veterans Memorial Building, 846 Front Street, Santa Cruz, will include workshops in movement, text, and voice and rehearsal time with Shakespeare experts. Students will become more comfortable with public speaking, learn how to do close reading of text and incorporate that into performance, and gain confidence with self-expression and artistic abilities. Cost is $1,000 and includes access for one student and one adult ticket to our professional performance of As You Like It on Saturday, July 13, right after the student performance, as well as a souvenir sweatshirt.
