How did Shakespeare’s plays sound in his day?

UK actor, author and presenter of Original Pronunciation (OP), Ben Crystal is working internationally by Skype and then in Wellington with a troupe of experienced SGCNZ Alumni for an intensive Lab week. Katie Boyle, Moana Ete, Stevie Hancox-Monk, Kieran Morris, Jimmy O’Donovan, Alexander Sparrow and Maggie White will join Ben to perform a Shakespeare Showcase of readings of famous scenes, sonnets, songs, speeches and soliloquies in OP, revealing the subtle, and not-so-subtle, humour!

In the UK, Ben is artistic director of Passion in Practice and Shakespeare Ensemble.
