Spark Creative Works, Long Island
Welcome to Our Creative CommunitySummer Shakespeare Festival
Our next project we will be working towards is a Shakespeare Festival. The goal of this festival is to allow women to play stereotypically male roles while also including an element of puppetry to bring to life some of Shakespeare's most magical, heartfelt, and terrifying moments. The season will include one of Shakespeare's comedies and one of his tragedies. We would like to give female performers the opportunity to step into roles they never thought they'd be able to play while also creating more work and training future female puppeteers in this sparingly taught art form. All genders are welcome to audition, however, for the purpose of the piece and the artistic statement we'd like to make, a majority of roles will be cast with female presenting actors.
*We are still in our early stages of planning for this festival and this selection is subject to change based on puppetry, artistry & space capabilities.
Please stay tuned for more info & updates!!!!
