COTUIT- The Cotuit Center for the Arts will be offering a range of classes and workshops to entertain and educate children, teens and families this summer.
At ‘Camp Shakespeare’, instructor Ed O’Toole will offer a two-week class that culminates in a one-hour junior production featuring the playwright’s most famous comic scenes. Participants will study and rehearse the text in the same way Shakespeare’s own actors would have.
The second class called ‘Creating Art from Nature’ taught by illustrator and Cape Cod native Maddie Edgar, will use natural materials, and objects as inspiration, and even as building components to create unique works of art.
Finally, ‘Entrain’ member Sam Holmstock will teach ‘Drum Fun with Sam’, a class for adults, kids, and teens.
Participants will learn the traditional rhythms of Cuba, West Africa, and Brazil and have the opportunity to play in an ensemble setting. Many Brazilian ancillary instruments will be used during the course.
