About

Cal Shakes’ Summer Shakespeare Conservatory for ages 8–18 offers a theater experience rooted in the same passion for artistic exploration and excellence that guide our award-winning Main Stage productions. We foster self-expression and artistic discipline to engage students in the theater-making process: Participants spend the morning playing and creating in a wide variety of theater disciplines, taught by working theater professionals; afternoons are spent in rehearsals. The experience culminates in Shakespeare performances for family and friends at the end of the two-, three-, and five-week sessions.

We have two sessions in the Oakland Area:

Three-week session
Oakland School for the Arts, Downtown Oakland
July 7-July 25

Two-week session
Zion Lutheran School, Piedmont
July 28-August 8
