Podcast: Play in new window | Download The Geeks explore how much leeway a director should give actors in terms of improvisation, character development, experimentation and risk during the rehearsal period and the performance itself.

Podcast: Play in new window | Download  Chris Judson Or Can You???Concord High School (Elkhart, IN) English teacher Chris Judson spent summer 2009 traveling the country seeing all of Shakespeare’s plays, and today he shares some of his experiences and observations of this once-in-a-lifetime theatrical adventure. Seeing a lot of theatre is the geeks’ idea of a good time, but we couldn’t help but wonder if this wasn’t just a little too much Shakespeare. Chris certainly didn’t think so, even if some of the performances he saw were less than satisfying. Besides this Theatre Geeks interview, Chris shares his views on Shakespeare and education via several blogs, including: Bashing Ed — also includes a podcast Music made available by Music Alley  Don't let life get you down. More Theatre Geeks episodes are on the way! Marcia’s back from California (she sure couldn’t have come back to Indiana at a better time –NOT), and we’ll be back in the studio to record more episodes of the Theatre Geeks Podcast.
