We are delighted to be taking part in one of the world’s largest youth Drama festival, Shakespeare Schools Festival 2017. Every year thousands of young people across the UK are given the unique opportunity to perform in a professional theatre. We are pleased to inform you that your child will be performing in our production of “The Tempest” taking place on Monday 6th November 2017 at The Beck Theatre, Hayes. As part of the festival journey, your child will be required to take part in rehearsals at school; the dates and times your child is required to attend is detailed below and it is vital that they attend all of the rehearsals and practice their lines at home. On the performance day, our cast will spend the day at the theatre for a technical and dress rehearsal, fully supported by a professional theatre director, and sound and lighting technicians. In the evening, your child with their cast mates will join students from other local schools as each perform their own abridged Shakespeare play in front of friends, family and the local community!
