Wherefore art thou Romeo?

Year 10 students hugely impressed when they presented an abridged version of one of Shakespeare’s most well-known works, “Romeo and Juliet” at the end of the half-term.

Using live music and set in more modern times, the play delivered all the intrigue and excitement you would expect as the audience followed the love story of Romeo and Juliet, through to the tragic fate which awaited them.

Staging the play, which is a set text for Year 10 English, really helped to further the girls’ understanding not only of the play itself, but also of Shakespearian language in general.
