SUMMARY:Original Practice Shakspeare Festival: A Midsommer Nights Dreame
DESCRIPTION:OPS Festival brings no-cost repertory Shakespeare to parks and venues all over the Portland Metro area. The company uses the original practice techniques of Elizabethan England: limited rehearsal\, scrolls in hand\, audience interaction\, and an onstage prompter.\nIn Shakespeare’s Era\, the audience knew the actors had not rehearsed and that the only context each had of the play was their own role on a scroll. The play was as fresh to the actors as the audience. \nIn our company\, you’ll NEVER see the same cast do the same play in the same way. Because Shakespeare should be a little dangerous!
