SHARING THE JOURNEY
Shakespeare’s stories are about the human experience at its limits – love, transgression, defiance, achievement and, of course, triumph above all. These experiences shape his characters, and while they may speak differently to each of us, we can learn something from them all.
In 2012 our Learning programmes continue to assist you in sharing the joy of Shakespeare and his stories with your students – whether in the theatre, your school hall, classroom or simply in your own teaching.
This year we welcome a new troupe of The Players, who will tour the country performing as Actors At Work with a brand new show, Macbeth: Undone and a return of last year’s popular Midsummer Madness. Playing to over 16,500 students last year, we are staging a return season of Romeo And Juliet in Sydney and Melbourne. On our mainstage we’re charting the course of the human experience, from the farce of The School For Wives, to the dark depravity of The Duchess of Malfi and the guilt-ridden bloodiness of the great Scottish play, Macbeth.
Wherever we meet you, we look forward to taking the journey with you and your students in 2012.
