WLSE

We Love Shakespeare Ensemble
(I Love Shakespeare & You Love Shakespeare)

Our aim at WLSE is raising a play in 14 weeks; workshopping from the page to the stage.
Our 12 – 14 actors commit to one or more roles and create a character using the words Shakespeare provides; in a cut version of around 90 minutes length.

Our focus is on speaking the verse and prose and playing the story arc.
A tailor-made soundscape accompanies the play; and costume and props are kept to a minimum.

The idea arose as I watched a scene night at the Mulholland Academy where i give sessions in Speech & Voice as well as Shakespeare. Why not do a 14 week, 14 person workshop? Is anyone interested? Names and bodies quickly started to show interest. Our first play?
