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.

The festival framework gives teachers the opportunity to develop their chosen Shakespeare in class, through performance. With given texts and fixed timetables, the onus is placed firmly on the students to interact meaningfully with the project.
