The program was specifically developed for high school students Mariah Webb and Keri Rene Fuller, to work with our performers, directors, administrators and backstage crew to receive a well-rounded view of producing and performing innovative classical theatre.

| RTC hosted New York Theatre Director and Playwright, John Dias, to lead a workshop, panel discussion and artists’ talk-back on Saturday Feb. 19, 2011 at The Broadway Theater. “Shakespeare’s Text” workshop fee was $30 per student; panel-discussion and post-show cast talk-back are free to attendees of Saturday Feb 19th performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream. Dias, former Associate Artistic Director of the Public Theater in New York City – the theatre company that produces NYC’s famous Shakespeare in the Park – is an international lecturer and teacher with a specialty in performing the works of William Shakespeare. RTC offered a one-day workshop with Dias on “Shakespeare’s text”, geared toward performers and enthusiasts, on Saturday, February 19, 2011. That same evening, Dias also participated in an RTC hosted, pre-show panel discussion on “Shakespeare in Performance” along with University of Oklahoma professors, Dr. Kae Koger and Dr. James Yoch at 7:15 pm, and then hosted a post-show conversation with the cast of RTC’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

Testimonials
your team were obviously committed to working closely together, and the discussion after the play had memorable comments about collaboration among the many-talented members. Congratulations on putting them all together with such happy results-close to what I imagine was the cooperation and intermingling of Shakespeare's original players.” |
From Students:
“I used to think Shakespeare was one of the most boring authors ever. He's not. He's the most exciting.“ “I never thought I would learn so much from Shakespeare's confusing words. But I did. I learned to find beauty in the art of language.“ “Shakespeare in a book nay, Shakespeare on a stage yay! Life lessons are learned here in the play." Students at Mustang High School |
From Parents:
expected him to get bored and to not understand it, but you exceeded my most hopeful expectations. My son was entertained the entire time, laughed for a stretch of 2 minutes straight …Bravo. Thank you for your service to the community, and please keep up the great work. “

From Educators:
“One boy actually came into the classroom chanting ‘GOOOOO Shakespeare!’ One
student commented that she didn’t realize the play was a comedy when she read it, but
now she sees how funny it is. Another student said at intermission Saturday night, ‘Now I
get it.’... Thank you to you and your cast and crew for providing teachers an opportunity to
make our lessons come alive and reinforce the classroom learning.”
