Schools Shakespeare Festival 2020 – The 2nd Annual Schools Shakespeare Festival @ dlr Mill Theatre.

Taking place over 5 evenings in the Main Auditorium, The 2nd Annual Schools Shakespeare Festival will see school groups perform an excerpt from their chosen Shakespeare text. All performances are 30 minutes and adjudicator Geoff O'Keeffe will present feedback each night.
