Shakespeare Drama School in Prescot
launches Online
Imaginarium Theatre,
a theatre and community arts organisation based in Prescot in Knowsley, (Liverpool), are launching
the Imaginarium Drama School in partnership with the Shakespeare North
Playhouse and the Royal Shakespeare Company Open Stages.
The Drama School will be
available (initially online) to all ages with classes for children, young
people, and adults at low prices to ensure that they are accessible to
everyone. This summer there will be 5 Zoom courses led by Michael Corbidge,
Senior Voice and Text Director at the RSC and lecturer at Rose Bruford Drama
College in London with Imaginarium Associate Artists.
Courses include masterclasses, audition training and CPD for
professional actors and emerging professionals, an Introduction to
Shakespeare for total beginners, and fun Shakespeare Movie Maker
courses for 7-17 year olds. There will be new courses announced soon for the
autumn term.
Artistic
Director Gaynor La Rocca said “To create a professional drama school with
classical training that is accessible to all and rooted within the community
has been our ambition for some time. We intend to offer courses at Cockpit
House in Prescot just as soon as it is safe for us to do so, and from 2022 we
will be based in the new Shakespeare North Playhouse. In the meantime, our online
Zoom courses will allow us to increase our reach both locally and across the
globe.”
Drama
School courses are available at the introductory cost of just £20 for a
four-week course, 90 mins per week. FREE TASTER sessions will take place from Tuesday 28th July, with
courses beginning from Monday 3rd August. For full details of courses
