A taste of what's on offer
There are lots of options. Those who book on to our month-long Shakespeare Summer School will spend four weeks working in one of two companies, taking classes in everything from stage fighting and clown to sonnets and monologues; all designed to investigate Shakespeare from an actor's point of view.
Meanwhile, those enrolling on the five-day Set and Costume Design for Theatre: an Introduction course will undertake a series of intensive, practical workshops, exercises and techniques - ideal for anyone who is thinking about a career in theatre design or wants to transfer skills from similar disciplines.
These are just two of the many courses on offer - to browse the full list and find out how to book your space, you can find out more here.
