The Baron’s Men firmly believe in sharing our knowledge of historical theater and we have put that belief into action through our work with Austin area high schools. The Baron’s Men offers a variety of programs to high school theater departments ranging from after performance talk-backs, to giving workshops to assisting in the production of Shakespearean plays.
Our classes/workshops include:
- History of 16th Century English Theater
- Understanding Shakespeare’s Language
- 16th Century Costuming
- Understanding Verse and Prose
The goal of our High School Program is to spread the understanding of Shakespearean theater, it’s methods, language, and culture among young students of theater. If you are a theater teacher in the Austin area and would like to learn more, please contact us for more information.
Here is a sample of the type of feedback we’ve gotten from our students:
