Shakespeare for Primary Schools

Introduce your students to the world of Shakespeare long before they enter Post Primary School Shakespeare level. Our Shakespeare session is focused on creating and designing your own version of the play with the opportunity to interact with the text, and learn about acting, directing, characters and much more (pupils can also engage with the text through Puppet Theatre).This Programme endeavours to be a fun and engaging first experience of Shakespeare that students will never forget.
