Plays performed at all three venues of the Royal Shakespeare Company and ample time to tour Stratford make this a memorable experience. Bed and breakfast accommodations provide the ambiance of English country charm. Ample time for sightseeing is permitted, including one free Sunday. The trip concludes with departure from Heathrow Airport for the return nonstop flight to Newark Airport. Seminar participants wishing to earn college credits are required to attend all plays and classes and to participate actively in the program.
Students keep a journal in which they record details about the plays and classes.
A take-home exam is completed within a month of return to the United States. The course grade will be based upon the quality of all of the Seminar requirements. Members of the community are welcome to participate. Arthur Waldman received his B.F.A. from Boston University and M.F.A. in Theatre from Ohio University.
