Full event details

Over the course of 3 sessions, students will be able to enhance their knowledge and understanding of the works of Shakespeare. They will be able to experience the place where Shakespeare’s plays were first shown in a virtual tour and see what Elizabethan life was like. Students will also have the opportunity to experience one of the playwriter’s plays and take part in an interactive workshop to enhance their understanding of Shakespeare’s plays and how they would have been perceived by an audience. This event aims to enhance students understanding of the world of arts and culture while also bringing the plays they often study in the classroom to life.
