Join Lavina Jadhwani, director of NDSF’s upcoming 2020 production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, for a thrilling two-hour masterclass on performing Shakespeare.
This is your chance to show your work, receive feedback, and learn what a professional director looks for in actors.
After a few brief introductions and warmup exercises, students will watch and listen as Lavina works with one student at a time. The student will perform a single prepared piece, and Lavina will provide notes and feedback. The student then usually performs their piece again, incorporating her feedback.
