SHAKESPEARE 400 YEARS - Diary of Events

BARDS WITHOUT BORDERS- Stepping up
Second rehearsals at King's College

We met at the entrance; before even signing in, slid immediately in-n-n-nna Shakespeare mode...
Hugs, jokes and handshakes sandwiched in the chilly room somewhere above the Strand traffic. Yup. Supercharged. Even as we trudged to the lift, an assigned task. As usual.  In twos or threes. Discuss this. Reflect. Check out that. Not a minute wasted. Best thing about this project is the work ethic...

DIARY OF SHAKESPEARE'S 400 YEAR ANNIVERSARY

BARDS WITHOUT BORDERS

Rehearsals Kick Off at Arcola Theatre

Laughter- Words- Voices -Images-Fun

There were some amazing lines oozing from session leaders Laila Sumpton and Arne Pohlmeier's lips. One that stood out most ( for me) was Arne Pohlmeier , constantly, referring us as "you Poets usually are good with that"- which was what we were. Standing and sitting and shouting and working on speech. For that is what William Shakespeare reminds us. Words, poetry, words, drama, words, poetry, speech, words.
Literature...
