EDUCATION & OUTREACH
Why OPS Fest in your school?
|
We do something no one else does: break down Shakespeare's text the way it was originally delivered and interpreted.
We resonate with modern audiences while teaching mindfulness through the text. Whether we work with you to bolster the existing curriculum or expose your students to Shakespeare through our accessible, family-friendly approach: contact us today!

Several of my students saw your 'O.P. Much Adoe' and LOVED it! They raved about the creativity, audience involvement and how accessible it was. Plus they loved seeing how it was staged 'back in the day.' These are Intro. to Theatre kids who for the most part HATE theatre and everyone who practices it. NICE WORK! You're reaching some HARD-to-reach audiences." |
What does Original Practice Shakespeare offer?
Touring Show: We perform for you! |
You choose the show! We have worked hard to develop hour-long versions of our plays to accommodate the school's schedule.
|
Learn to OPS: You perform! |
Students take the same training as our actors, culminating in their own performance utilizing Original Practice techniques.

Everything else: More! |
We can provide workshops, long term residencies, improvisation & individual scene performances.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! The assembly and play last night were so much fun and a great way to engage our students in their Shakespeare unit. Thanks again for coming early and for making the plays so much fun. I look forward to seeing a show this summer!"
