A Midsummer Night’s Dream

by William Shakespeare adapted by Leigh Farrant

Organisation

We can teach up to 4 groups in a day. The pupils perform the show with the splats teacher who acts as the narrator. This helps cement the whole play together and of course provides a cue for the pupils. The Splats director brings props, pieces of costume and music/sound effects.

Performance 

The workshops are active, fun and a real challenge for all, created with physical theatre, movement, circus, dance and scripted character acting. As we learn the show and perform it in just one day, pupils are up on stage before they have any time to think about nerves. This gives all pupils an opportunity to shine in a very relaxed environment.

How our Shakespeare Show day works

One hour long shows with a cast of three (needs to be seen to be believed) followed by Q & A or workshops in a half day visit.

For full day after the show your students can create their own version with our company or visiting director to perform at the end of the day to family and friends.

OR have two shows with Shakespeare Double Bill

Our shows are also available as a double bill performance with either Midsummer Night’s Dream or Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth or The Tempest. Comedy and Tragedy in a day.
