| At the Globe, a modern replica of Shakespeare’s original theater, performances are staged as in Elizabethan times—without lighting, elaborate scenery, or cushy seats for the audience, so the actors must be good!

Designers from colleges nationwide
will apprentice with the pros for a semester in London. In private studios
backstage, you’ll complete and present project designs for
costumes and sets, based on the Globe stage. London theater professionals act as directors for each project,
meeting regularly with you. In addition, experts in model making and costume construction conduct
special training classes. You will need to submit a portfolio as part of your application.
| Course Highlights: |
|
 |
Course work
features design, text analysis, project presentation, life
drawing, a designer’s studio class, and a designer’s
practicum. |
|
You’ll also take stage combat and movement
classes with the actors to deepen your understanding of
design needs in these areas (plus they’re fun!). |
|
To supplement your courses, you'll attend plays, opera, dance, and concerts, as well as
excursions to the National Gallery, the National Portrait Gallery, and the British Museum. A longer trip to
Stratford-upon-Avon is also included. |

All the world’s a stage, according to Shakespeare. But the
Globe Theater in London is the primo
place to train if you’re serious about theater design.
And if so, you're one lucky designer indeed because we can give you access to this famed stage and the renown Globe Education program.
This program offers an intensive workshop experience aimed at enhancing and broadening your skills and understanding of
text, movement, and design presentation.
You’ll live in shared modern flats
right in London, close to the Globe and the British Museum
and never more than a Tube ride away from the city’s
cutting-edge theater, club, and music scene. Tours of British museums and London’s
sights add to the
experience for actors and designers alike. There’ll be fun
guest workshops for all and myriad outings for performances
in theater, dance, music, and opera. So break a leg, hit
your mark, and don’t forget to breathe, ‘cause Rutgers at
the Globe earns a
standing-O.
