About
Mastering Shakespearean Verse is an online course designed for actors, students, directors, and drama school applicants who want confident, character-driven performance in Shakespeare’s language. Led by Simon Coates, you’ll learn to discover character through technical analysis of the verse—rhythm, stress, scansion, and sound—then translate it into clear intentions, expressive breath, and compelling stage delivery. By the end, you’ll be able to break down any audition or rehearsal text, identify how the lines “work” emotionally and structurally, and perform with greater control, authority, and musicality. Perfect if you want to improve auditions, deepen rehearsal accuracy, and elevate your Shakespeare from “memorised” to truly “inhabited”.
