Shakespeare Seminars
FOR UPPER SECONDARY STUDENTS
In this interactive seminar, two Bell Shakespeare Teaching Artists will combine rich critical analysis with active explorations of Shakespeare’s text. Best suited to senior students in Year 11-12 who are advanced in their study of a play, and need expert analysis to prepare for senior exams.
Each session will cover critical analysis, literary techniques, multiple readings, thematic discussion, character analysis and personal response. A handful of key scenes and soliloquies are performed by the Teaching Artists, with students taking over the role of director to influence meaning. A unique opportunity for senior students to meaningfully engage with Shakespeare’s plays, and work with professional artists.
