The world feels like it’s at a standstill, but at The Old Globe we are still training tomorrow’s artists.

Every summer, the Pam Farr Summer Shakespeare Studio takes San Diego-area high school students on a four-week journey that deepens their understanding and appreciation of Shakespeare’s works by using his plays as models for investigating and linking them to their own experiences.

This year, our students will be exploring Romeo and Juliet with our expert teaching artists in late summer. Students will enjoy an intensive curriculum of acting, movement, music, voice and speech, as well as writing classes, culminating in a special performance.

For the first time, all 25 students will be invited to take the program tuition-free—which is why we need your support. Help us deliver this vital program and change the lives of 25 future leaders in the world of theatre.

Partner with us to support the talented students participating in the Pam Farr Summer Shakespeare Studio this summer.

Very special thanks to our lead sponsors Renée and Bob Wailes. Thanks to their generous donation, every dollar you give (up to $30,000) will be matched one-for-one!

The program will run July 13 to August 1, 2020, with a final performance taking place on August 1. For more information or to make a donation, contact Keely Tidrow at ktidrow@theoldglobe.org or (323) 547-9995.
