This book provides an overview of theatre-based teaching of
Shakespeare and offers a comprehensive exploration of the
educational principles underpinning the practice. Through exploring
how and why theatre-based practice in the classroom can open up the
possibilities of Shakespeare study, it investigates how different
understandings emerge from our ever-shifting experiences of
language and culture. This book empowers Shakespeare educators in
supporting young people, aged 15–20, to interact critically,
creatively and collaboratively with the cultural inheritance of
Shakespeare’s texts. Drawing on the authors’ range of scholarly
experience, and practical work with organizations, including the
Royal Shakespeare Company, Shakespeare’s Globe, the Folger and
Shakespeare Schools Foundation, Part One engages in lively dialogue
with core questions of Shakespeare’s educational and cultural
positions within the classroom. Part Two is based around a series
of interviews with key practitioners from a range of Shakespeare
performance and education organizations, exploring the core
principles and practices behind their work and how these translate
into the range of resources and programmes they offer. Part Three
focuses on the experiences of practicing classroom teachers,
realistically reviewing the opportunities and constraints of
teaching through theatre-based approaches, with contributions from
a diverse set of teachers who have found success with young people
in different contexts and with different challenges.
