Mastering Shakespeare is the first book about acting Shakespeare to emerge from the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. Kaiser has been with OSF 13 seasons and worked on more than 70 productions. Most recently he has adapted William Shakespeare's three Henry VI plays into two parts, Henry VI, Part One: Talbot & Joan and Henry VI, Parts Two & Three: Henry & Margaret. Part One recently opened at OSF's New Theatre and will run through October 31, 2004. Parts Two & Three will open on the Elizabethan Stage on June 19 and run through October 9, 2004. Kaiser and OSF Artistic Director Libby Appel are co-directing the productions. "Scott Kaiser knows more about Shakespearean text and how an American actor can wrap his or her mouth, mind and heart around it than anyone I ever met," Appel said. "This book is an invaluable guide for the teacher and the actor in how to master the 'secret language' of Shakespeare." Mastering Shakespeare can be found in bookstores or can be ordered from the publisher at 1-800-491-2808 or www.allworth.com   DailyTidings.com Home Page Valley&State | Backpage | O&E | Sports | Archives | Weather | Classifieds Columnists | Faith&Beliefs | Obituaries | Revels | Subscribe | Contact Us Copyright 2004 Ashland Daily Tidings and Ottaway Newspapers All Rights Reserved Click Here Site Search: .:Advertisements:.
