“Look, a dog!”: Discussing Music and Community

Let’s continue talking As You Like It with Los Angeles actor Daniel DeYoung who played Amiens and Corin this summer in LA’s free Shakespeare in the Park with the Independent Shakespeare Company. We’ll be talking about community engagement in terms of comprehension, comedy, music, and cost, what it means to be the outsider in Shakespeare’s works, and if anyone actually knows what mimesis really is or how to pronounce it.  PLEASE SUBSCRIBE! www.theshakespeareanshrew.com  https://www.youtube.com/@ShakespeareanShrew  Please follow us on Instagram: @theshakespeareanshrew TikTok: @theshakespeareanshrew Please donate to OSP: https://www.okshakes.org/donate As You Like It runs October 11th through the 20th.

Host/Shakespearean Shrew: Dr. Karen Feiner Co-Creator/Brew Shrew: Michelle Coffman Cover Art Creator/Artistic Shrew: Katie Kimberling ⁠⁠www.halfmaverick.com⁠⁠ Thank you to our guest Daniel DeYoung.  Daniel DeYoung is a born-and-bred Angeleno with a passion for performing and music. After earning his degree and taking the long, winding road across the country performing mostly Shakespeare, Daniel returned to his hometown to continue his artistic adventures. Along the way, he’s had the pleasure of working with companies like The American Shakespeare Center, Arkansas Shakespeare Theater, The Rubicon, and The Guthrie Theater. Oh, and did we mention he co-founded the Sonoma Valley Shakespeare Company, because why not? Currently, you’ll find Daniel playing double duty as an actor and musician with The Independent Shakespeare Company, where he's been rocking the stage (and his mandolin, bass, or guitar) for the last decade. If you look closely, you might spot him on TV—he's nabbed roles in HBO's Winning Time, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, and—wait for it—he was Brad Pitt’s stand-in on Dave. No big deal. When he’s not in front of the camera or on stage, Daniel spends his time coaching young actors, teaching yoga, and hanging out in the heart of LA with his wife and their dynamic six-year-old daughter, who keeps him on his toes.
