A Taste of Shakespeare

The Brainy Bard

Considered by many to be the greatest poet and writer who ever lived, the works of Shakespeare are still studied and enjoyed to this very day and we can thank him for nearly 2000 words still in use in the English language! Our Shakespeare workshops aim to demystify the works of the Bard and improve vocabulary. Join us as we travel back in time to the 1600's. As well as recreating some of Shakespeare’s most famous scenes your students will work alongside our facilitators to unpick a famous monologue performed live by our actor/s.

This workshop is delivered by Shakespearean trained actors.

Packages available: Silver, Gold.

If you pick our silver package your students will:

Enjoy an interactive session with one actor/facilitator.

What do other schools say?

"Directors were very professional and the organisation of the whole day was brilliant. Children enjoyed using props and the backdrop and performing what they'd done. We enjoyed it all! Yes we would book another workshop. It was a great day enjoyed by all, Thank you!" - Broadheath Primary School, Coventry.

All of our workshops can be tailored to suit the needs of your school and are flexible in their length. This means you can have up to FIVE one hour Taste of Shakespeare workshops in a day or a whole day of interactive and in depth fun with one class.
