Drawing on his eighteen years of experience as a teaching artist
for Folger Shakespeare Library, Nick Newlin offers eighteen scenes
to get young actors on their feet performing Shakespeare with
confidence, understanding, and fun! Each scene averages five
minutes in length, containing two to six characters, and features a
monologue that young performers can use in performance, audition,
or competition. Every scene has been "road tested" by one of
Newlin's student groups at the Folger's annual Secondary School
Shakespeare Festival, and includes dynamic stage directions and
incisive performance notes to help teachers and students bring
Shakespeare's plays to life. The 30-Minute Shakespeare Anthology
includes one scene and monologue from eighteen of Shakespeare's
greatest plays, including Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, Hamlet,
Othello, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Julius Caesar, Much Ado About
Nothing, As You Like It, The Merchant of Venice, and The Taming of
the Shrew. Additionally, the anthology contains a scene and
monologue from Henry IV Part I, King Lear, As You Like It, The
Comedy of Errors, The Tempest, Twelfth Night, The Merry Wives of
Windsor, and Love's Labor's Lost. Also featured is an essay by
editor Nick Newlin on how to produce a Shakespeare play with novice
actors, and notes about the original production of this abridgment
at the Folger Shakespeare Library's annual Student Shakespeare
Festival. Each scene and monologue has accompanying notes and
performance suggestions.
