Education & Outreach Director Kathryn Moroney
Julius Caesar By William Shakespeare
Adapted by Tyler Deobrowsky
Asolo Rep proudly presents an FSU/Asolo Conservatory for Actor Training touring production of William Shakespeare's JULIUS CAESAR. The eighth annual educational touring production will be helmed by New York-‐ based director and Joseph Jefferson Award-‐winner James Dean Palmer and adapted by Tyler Dobrowsky. This fresh 45-‐minute take on one of Shakespeare's most enduring classics will tour schools and community venues throughout Sarasota and the state of Florida.
Set in the 1980s — a decade marred by greed and indulgence — this fast and fiery adaptation transforms Julius Caesar from Roman politician and general to preeminent Wall Street powerbroker betrayed by his most trusted associates. The consequences of his murder spiral into the streets in a vicious war for control, honor and survival. JULIUS CAESAR endures as a provocative examination of personal responsibility against the backdrop of great political consequences.
Adapter Tyler Dobrowsky is the Associate Artistic Director of Trinity Rep, where he has directed productions of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Julius Caesar, A Flea in Her Ear, It’s A Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play, Love Alone (a world premiere with the playwright Deb Salem Smith) and A Christmas Carol. Director James Dean Palmer has served as the Artistic Director of Chicago's Red Tape Theatre for nine seasons. His work has been seen at The Goodman, Victory Gardens, American Theater Company, Trinity Rep, and more.
This performance is free of charge to all FTC Festival badge holders. On stage immediately following the performance, the cast and crew will participate in a “Talk-‐Back Session” workshop, which will explore the students total involvement in the production of The Tragedy of Hamlet, including set design and staging.

They connect mind and body to create a learning and thinking environment, so that they walk away understanding more than just the steps. They understand movement concepts, a deeper exploration of technical skills, and creativity. It has been found to be a more fulfilling way to learn and practice their craft, creating a dancer/ performer that will excel in the professional world because they can not only think on their own, but they can have a more well-‐ rounded understanding of their body and how it moves, in order to collaborate in the artistic world. This workshop will be an example of how this type of curriculum can be applied to a musical theatre jazz class.

SFC – BUILDING E, BLACK BOX THEATRE, ROOM E-‐129 Alternative Dance Styles for Musical Theatre Rhiannon Martin-‐ Producer of Dirty South Burlesque & Cabaret-‐ Augusta, GA. Many classic and modern musicals utilize unique styles, and neither performers nor choreographers learn about them during their extensive training. Learning kickline, burlesque, and "chair dance" can help performers and choreographers gain an edge, and potentially help them
land a role or a job as a choreographer.

Prof. Fanni Green, University of South Florida Whether it’s a poem, play, or song, you’re creating captivating characters embroiled in conflicts of human experience. Before you memorize your lines, before you get on your feet, before the costumes, lights and audience -‐ your work begins with the text. In this 3-‐step, 90-‐minute acting workshop you’ll first ‘diagram’ the text, ‘discover’ the sounds ‘n rhythms of the words, and ‘highlight’ its actions and intentions. Second, with text in hand, you’ll get on your feet and play, applying your work to memorizing your lines and rehearsal. Thirdly, armed with these tools, and trusting your partner, you can be both specific and imaginative, as you make your performance “live” from moment to moment. SFC – BUILDING E, CHORAL LAB, ROOM E-‐134 Top Ten Tuneful Tips for College Musical Theatre Auditions Dr. Christianne Roll, Florida Southern College Perhaps due to the “Glee phenomenon,” or the recent Live! versions of Broadway shows, studying musical theatre in college is rapidly gaining popularity, and getting in to a program is tougher than ever before.

This workshop will lead attendees through a series of improv exercises in the hope of finding a stronger, more specific performative impulse.
