The Year 5 Twelfth Night Workshop

Year 5 boys were lucky enough to have two actors from the Rose Theatre Youth Theatre visit to deliver a workshop to introduce them to the characters and plot of the great Shakespeare play ‘Twelfth Night’.

The boys engaged in a series of exercises to prepare themselves for the challenges of Shakespearean English, including group delivery of tongue twisters with expression and singing ‘Happy Birthday’ with their tongue out! Feeling suitably prepared, the boys engaged in dramatic retellings of the plot of Twelfth Night, with many taking staring roles as the main protagonists – It was fantastic to see how many budding actors there are amongst the year group!
