<p>Hi all, I am a current high school senior in the US, and I would love to participate in a summer academic program centered around Shakespeare this summer. The problem is, all of the ones I find are either 1. abroad (Italy/UK) which is too impractical for my family 2. over $3000, which is way too expensive for my family, or 3. performance-oriented. I am not an actor, but I want to study English in college, so I would love to focus more on the actual analysis of the text than the performance of it. I will not be 18 until late September, so I will not be able to participate in programs with an 18+ age restriction.</p>
<p>I'm having extreme difficulty finding any programs that meet mine and my family's criteria, so if anyone has participated in or heard about a program that may, I would love to hear about it! Thank you!</p>
