The Spectres of Hamlet*
Preteen & Teen • Ages 10+
July 8 to 12 (5 evenings)
6:00 PM to 9:00 PM
$298 + GST
We don’t need to tell you that Hamlet is a Shakespearean classic; it's filled with iconic literary scenes and quotes that have infiltrated our society in so many ways.
Christianne will start with the basic story and gradually integrate more Shakespearean English before walking students through a more recent adaptation of the famous tragedy. She will be focusing on both key passages and the smaller nuances that sometimes are missed in the grandeur of Hamlet.
As we channel who we believe to be the most creative (and perhaps dramatic) character, students will spend the week working on their own Shakespearean inspired shadow box scene. The group will sculpt figures for a three dimensional battlement, using a printed excerpt from the play as the background (printed on historically accurate yellowed paper). We can already sense that this camp will produce some spectacular pieces…make sure that yours is one of them.
*This camp will include a ticket to Stephen Drover’s adaptation of Hamlet at Bard on the Beach. Dates will be announced closer to the time.
Shakespeare is a key highlight of the Lyceum's Summer Camp.
Each year, you have the opportunity to enroll in this enriching program.
