As part of its ongoing collaboration with HEC-TV Live!, RoundTrips is very pleased to announce two FREE videoconference programs set for May 14 with the Shakespeare Festival of St. Louis. Each year the Shakespeare Festival provides a wonderful, free, public theater experience under the stars in the beautiful urban oasis of Forest Park in St. Louis. This year, they are producing "The Merry Wives of Windsor" and our two programs will take you live to their outdoor performance space to see how the production comes together. As you'll note in the short descriptions below, our morning program will focus on production elements and our afternoon program on acting. More details, including program format, learning activities, and curriculum standards are available at our CILC web exhibit for each show. Those links are provided with the short descriptions below.
We hope you and your students can join us on May 14. If you wish to enroll or have any additional questions, please contact us directly via e-mail or the phone number below. Thank you very much for forwarding this information on to others you believe would be interested.
