ONE NIGHT OF SHAKESPEARE - THE WORKSHOPS

  • Pupils/Cast

Every cast received a workshop delivered by the National Youth Theatre, Scottish Youth Theatre, National Youth Theatre of Wales and the Ulster Association of Youth Drama. Each workshop focused on the specific play being performed, and was run in the fortnight prior to One Night of Shakespeare on July 3rd 2005.

  • Teacher/Directors
