We
make Shakespeare irresistible to kids! Students
emerge from this series of in-school workshops
knowing more about William Shakespeare than
most adults…and they have a blast doing
it!
An enthusiastic professional
actor visits your school, working with students
in an entire grade once a week for six-eight
weeks. (Total class time is 6-8 hours per
week.) Students learn:
• The fascinating history
of the Elizabethan stage
• Secrets of deciphering Shakespearean
language
• The plots of four major plays by acting
them out
The last class includes a performance
day where all of the classes perform pieces
for each other. “Shakespeare Comes
to School” helps instill a love
of language in children, helping them meet
important benchmarks and fulfilling National
Arts Standards.
*”Shakespeare Comes
to School” makes a wonderful grade
level tradition, as kids become part of a
mysterious Shakespeare society!
$50 per session (call
for details or to book for 2007-2008)
