Much Ado About Nothing - Shakespeare in the Summer
Abington Arts Center, Pulley and Buttonhole Theatre Company and White Pines Productions announce the return of Shakespeare in the Summer with an Original Practices Production of MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING by William Shakespeare on August 2, 3, 4 2016 on the lawn of Alverthorpe Manor at the Abington Art Center.
The three arts organizations are excited to once again bring an affordable opportunity for audiences of all ages to experience the beauty of Shakespeare's language in the beauty of the great outdoors.
This production utilizes Original Practices. This approach is meant to imitate the way Shakespeares own company prepared his plays, and to rediscover a spontaneity, joy, and immediacy in performance. The show is cast, scripts distributed, and lines are learned without rehearsal. The actors will gather weekly under the guidance of Benjamin Lloyd, Executive Director of White Pines, to play games, study the play, learn techniques, and create an ensemble. They will not run lines, work out movement or run the play. Every performance is a new experience for the audience and the ensemble.
