Shakespeare through Hip Hop with Pittsburgh Public Theater's experienced teaching artists in this summer session for students in grades seven through 12. Campers will spend this half-day morning camp experiencing Shakespeare through the eyes of hip hop. This class will serve as an introduction to Shakespeare with a hip hop twist providing a foundation for students who wish to explore acting using techniques and exercises, including dance, as a part of self-discovery and self-expression. The class will also use drama as a therapy through the power of storytelling, role-playing, and creative writing to facilitate personal growth and healing.
