In 1970, a University of Texas English Professor traded his classroom for a barn in the country. He believed that Shakespeare was not meant to be studied in an academic setting\u2014 it was meant to be performed. TAKE PAINS. BE PERFECT. is an inspiring new film that explores the decades old tradition of Shakespeare at Winedale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through the multiple generations of alumni interviewed and the view into the immersive camp, the film reveals the profound influence of the unconventional teaching methods of Professor James \u201cDoc\u201d Ayres, which underscore the power of play to inspire self-discovery and cooperation with others. The film follows the students as they develop, test and transcend their sense of self through their exploration of Shakespearean characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TAKE PAINS. BE PERFECT. vividly captivates the wonder experienced by many of Doc\u2019s students and illustrates the vitality and relevance of Shakespeare\u2019s language, characters, and narrative to the lives of people of all ages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
