Actors From The London Stage will be in
residence at Butler University during the week of October 19th,
2009. In addition to leading acting workshops for Butler theatre
majors, the group will also lead classes for a wide variety of
courses across campus. The actors specialize in bringing language
to life, and they are looking forward to visiting literature
courses and First Year Seminars, among others. The Butler
Department of Theatre is especially happy to share this renowned
group with our alumni: the five member group of professional actors
will provide a workshop in the art of Shakespearean performance for
Butler Theatre alumni.
