Shakespeare Workshops for Teachers
“This was wonderful! As both a Theatre and English Teacher, I have found this immensely helpful and look forward to putting these principles into action. Please, please make more classes!"
"Thank you, thank you, thank you! Excellent workshop! I came expecting to leave with a few ideas to encourage my students to love learning Shakespeare. I am leaving not only with more ideas, but my personal fire for Shakespeare has also been fanned."
"This is one of the most fun seminars I've been in!"
"This was easily the most entertaining and rich workshop I've attended. Thank you for your strategies and input. I hope my students will enjoy these practices as much as I did!"
"Martha leads with great enthusiasm that inspires one to get up and to Shakespeare. I appreciate the interaction with all the other teachers. Excellent use of time!"
Sixty-Minute Shakespeare Productions
"Shakespeare made accessible to students of all levels!! The performance was great!"
Lynn Capozzi, Grimsley High School, Greensboro, NC
"I have to tell you that I am sometimes frightful of inviting unruly freshmen to artistic performances, but your youthful actors kept our ninth graders rapt with attention. Students were spellbound by the performance and raced onstage afterwords to get autographs and photos with the actors. Not only did this provide a wonderful, engaging performance of Shakespeare,but it also inculcated a love for theatre, performance and language to young people who were affected by the presentations. I am most impressed with the concern for quality initiation into the Arts that Shakespeare To Go presents to North Carolina youth."
Gerrie W. Blackwelder, Jesse C. Carson High School, China Grove, NC
"Best Shakespeare we've seen with our students!"
Betsy McNeer, Summit School, Winston-Salem, NC
"Usually when I see Shakespeare with students my age, it's sort of awkward. They just don't want to be there, hearing words they don't understand, and I get all tense, and I don't enjoy it at all. But this is the first time that a full of audience of teenagers I've been in has utterly enjoyed a performance. Everyone was smiling the whole time. Thank you for everyone who didn't know they could enjoy Shakespeare. If I were a critic, I'd say something like "Bravo," but as I'm 14, it would sound sort of ostentatious. So, I'll just say "Thank you!"
Student, R J Reynolds High School for the Arts, Winston-Salem, NC
