Young Shakespeare Workshop

Young Shakespeare Workshop - November 2011On Friday 25th November we had a visit from the Young Shakespeare Company. In the morning we all got to act and some people got to play main parts in the play which happened to be The Tempest.

At first, we were sailors on a ship all doing different tasks. Some scrubbing the floor, some heaving the sails and we all had tonnes of fun. The royals were also acted by pupils! Such as Leksi acting Duke Antonio of Milan and Marki acted Prospero the Rightful Duke of Milan. Everybody had something to do and there were smiles all round. Everyone put their absolute all into acting the best they could.

Then, in the afternoon, the Young Shakespeare Company acted out the play. It was fantastic. Everyone laughed loads of times. Some people were picked to have parts in the play. Gonzalo was played by Lucy Stock and Sebastian was played by Leksi. They both acted very well. They finished the play and Prospero returned to his Dukedom and everyone lived on in peace. By Josh Blair (6L)
