All The School's a Stage
Georgia Shakespeare is on tour, and can come to YOUR neighborhood!
Bring a Shakespeare production to your school! All you do is provide the space...Georgia Shakespeare does the rest (see below for pricing information)! Georgia Shakespeare's school tour productions feature professional actors, sets, costumes, and an in-depth study guide for teachers. All plays are less than fifty-minutes long, just the right amount for one class period. Although abbreviated, Shakespeare's text remains intact so that your students can experience the bard's own words. Six actors play up to twelve roles, so students also gain an appreciation of the art of acting.
