Peer to Peer Shakespeare!

Tonight, Main Street’s Kids On Stage department is presenting its second workshop for Peer-to-Peer Shakespeare, a new interactive workshop targeted for middle and high school students.

Peer-to-Peer Shakespeare is a short, lively, participatory introduction of Shakespeare’s life and works for middle school and high school audiences. Stranded without half their cast and any of their props, a traveling troupe of actors proves that the show must go on—with the audience’s help. With audience members filling in, we will stage scenes from Romeo and Juliet, Henry V, Macbeth, A Midsummer Night’s Dream and others.

The learning doesn’t end after 45 minutes, though. After the workshop, students have an assignment to complete. The results will be in the comments of this post!
