Welcome to the Beyond Shakespeare Exploring Sessions! There are lots of options below, so read carefully.
Sign up covering TWO Weeks - if your availability changes before we've sent out team sheets, just do the form again, we work from the most recent form you submit. If you have a last minute change, do email us.
Scheduling for each week happens at 10am British Summer Time on Saturdays when team sheets are emailed out - if you apply after that you might get a part, but no guarantees.
There are *potentially* two sessions each day, Tuesday to Friday, which anyone can join. We meet on
zoom.us, get to know each other, read a play and if we have time discuss it a bit. We schedule sessions based on sign up, so some sessions will not happen.
Please sign up for sessions you're available for - we will then work to your availability. You can put lots of dates down but specific your maximum number of sessions if that works for you - that way you can be as available as you like, but only do so much as is reasonable.
All sessions are recorded and are mostly released on YouTube, or on our podcast, sometimes with a delay depending on scheduling/editing. WATCH AN EXAMPLE SESSION HERE:

Most importantly, have fun and meet new people!
