Each workshop will include a session in which Cerveris critiques students' audition pieces, and a question-and-answer session with the actor.

The event is part of the Learning From Performers series conducted by the university's Office for the Arts, and is free and open to public observers. Reservations are not required.

Cerveris is currently in King Lear at the Public Theater opposite Kevin Kline and will star in the upcoming LoveMusik at Manhattan Theatre Club's Biltmore Theatre on Broadway.

Cerveris received a Tony Award for Assassins and nominations for Sweeney Todd and The Who’s Tommy. He has appeared in Titanic on Broadway, and in Hedwig and the Angry Inch in London, Off-Broadway and Los Angeles, among other shows.

The workshops will be held at Harvard University in Cambridge, MA, at the Student Organization Center at Hilles, 59 Shepard Street, across from Cabot House near the Harvard-Radcliffe Quad. For more information visit www.fas.harvard.edu/ofa or call 617-495-8676.
