Workshop Description

This is a holistic course that aims to bring out the creativity of the students, deepen their understanding of history and language, and express their thoughts and feelings in writing, speaking and performance, through working with Shakespeare. Shakespeare is one of the greatest writers that ever lived and students are likely to study at least some Shakespeare in their schooling years.

Through this interactive and fun course, students will learn to love Shakespeare, instead of fear him. In this course, students read to understand the stories and characters of Shakespeare, devise and write a monologue as a character in the play, and finally perform their work in front of an audience.

• Demonstrate enhanced creativity through writing and performance
