The Studio at Shakespeare by the Sea welcomes applications from professional actors who want to develop their Shakespeare monologue audition piece.Your monologue should represent your best possible work: clear, with strong choices made, so that your unique artistry can shine through. Jade and Drew Douris-O’Hara will give you access to a full toolbox of techniques you can use to make your speech the best it can be. On the final day, we’ll film your monologue at the Park Place Theatre for you to use to promote your work.

Join us at Shakespeare by the Sea for a four-week introduction to the fundamentals of stage combat, running from September 14 to October 5. This dynamic course is designed for actors who wish to explore the art of choreographed combat in a theatrical setting. Participants will learn essential techniques for safely and effectively performing stage fights, including unarmed combat and rapier fundamentals. Through hands-on practice, you'll develop the skills to create convincing and visually striking combat sequences while understanding the principles of safety and storytelling. No previous experience is required—just a passion for performance and a willingness to dive into the exciting world of stage combat!

SBTSHalifax performances takes place in Mi'kma'ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi'kmaq people. The territory is covered by the Treaty of Peace and Friendship, which Mi'kmaq and Maliseet People first signed with the British crown in 1726.

​

We are forever grateful to be able to live and create art in this place, and we hope that our work joins the tradition of storytelling that has existed here long before us, documented and undocumented, acknowledging those whose names we know, and appreciating those whose names we may never know.
