The Shakespeare ZA team has been hard at work updating our site with new material, information and opportunities for teachers and learners!
We have bolstered our RESOURCES section with classroom activities, extra reading and further aids for studying Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth and other plays.
Click through to our NEW PRODUCTIONS page to find out about two shows in Johannesburg in February and March that will change your view of Hamlet.
For those in Cape Town, there is a production of Hamlet taking place at the Fugard Theatre in July … bookings are open, so get your tickets early! (Remember that joining the Shakespeare Society as a Youth Member - free for school learners - gives you access to discounted tickets and more.)
The Shakespeare Schools Festival (SA) is celebrating its tenth anniversary this year, with a packed nationwide programme starting in Cape Town in March, also at the Fugard. If your school is not participating this year, come and find out what it’s all about!
Or …
invite Hamlet to your school!
And finally ...
Don’t forget that we continue to add translations of the plays (reduced scripts for thirty minute performances) into isiZulu, isiXhosa and Afrikaans.
