Please join me today, Tuesday, May 21 at 9:30pm on the New York Shakespeare Instagram Live program. I will be discussing what I teach at NYU Grad Acting and also in my private classes - including the work I do on Shakespeare.

[Shane Ann Younts @shaneannyounts]

Maybe some thoughts on pronouncing all those words in Shakepeare’s plays and anything else that comes up! Rodney Hakim is the interviewer. The show is described as a “late night talk show” for people interested in celebrating all things Shakespeare.

I heard all of those Techniques of Voice and Text!! Once you’ve worked on Shakespeare, you can work on anything! #nyugradacting #nyugradactingalumni #publictheater #jordans #ifeolujobi ##whitneywhite #itsagaaa #naomilorrain #devinkessler

I saw the talented Naomi Lorrain in “Jordans" at the Public theater. And her understudy is also from NYU Grad Acting - Devin Kessler! Naomi’s performance is so specific and vibrant. She has a monologue at the end of the play which goes on for more than five minutes.

NYU Grad Acting Class of 2024 in their joyful production of “Hypochondriac”. Their last show and now they are out in the world. Well, almost - we still have the Tisch Salute but I miss them already.

They are a joy to work with both in class and on their Shakespeare Project (2 Gents). Can’t wait to continue our journey in the Fall.

As I predicted, Corey Stoll (my former student at NYU Grad Acting) was nominated for a Tony for his brilliant work in “Appropriate”. Congratulations!!! I’ve seen it twice and will go again. Get your tickets. You don’t want to miss this play and the extraordinary cast.

What a joy to have them all together in a book. Zelda was inspiring on so many levels. To have her words at my fingertips is a blessing. #zeldafichandler #nyugradacting #nyugradactingalumni #itsagaaa #shaneannyounts #cheriseboothe #krystallucas #larrymaslon #genevieveelam

This week NYU Grad Acting celebrated the extraordinary Zelda Fichandler. Zelda was the Chair of Grad Acting for twenty-five years. I had the honor and privilege to work for her.
