Newsletter No.4: Ways in which we can continue to support you.

'Why, this is very midsummer madness.'

The summer holidays are nearly upon us and we wish you all a restful and replenishing holiday period after what has been an incredibly challenging time for educators across the world.

As many of you move back into a socially distanced classroom environment this autumn term, we've been working hard to ensure that all our workshop and CPD sessions are available online. You'll find details of the range of ways we can work together in this newsletter.

Finally, this month marks the last chance for you and your students to catch our free Playing Shakespeare with Deutsche Bank's Macbeth online, but we'll be bringing you news of an exciting premiere for schools in autumn term.

We're doing all we can to bring Playing Shakespeare with Deutsche Bank back to the Globe in 2021. Watch this space for more news in September.

Work with Shakespeare's Globe this autumn term.

From September 2020, we will be delivering our workshops, storytelling, CPD and projects for schools online. This exciting new method of delivery will enable schools teaching in socially distanced classrooms, or using distance learning, to connect with the Globe wherever they are in the world.

We will also be offering socially distanced sessions in schools, and you can still book for workshops at the Globe when we re-open. Visit our learn pages for more details and please email us for all enquiries and bookings.

Our Lively Action workshops encapsulate the active spirit in which we engage with Shakespeare's texts at the Globe. These active workshops are available across the key stages on any play, or as an introduction to Shakespeare. Book in school sessions here, or email us to book online sessions.

Introduce your students to Shakespeare's plays in our interactive Storytelling sessions. These fun, immersive events are led by our educational practitioners. Each storytelling brings a separate play to life and creates an enjoyable introduction to Shakespeare's texts. Book in school sessions here, or email us to book online sessions.

Looking for training for your department or whole school? From language analysis to introducing Shakespeare's plays, we cover a broad range of training topics and our CPD sessions are tailored to your school's individual needs. Email us for more information or to book.

We also run longer projects aimed at areas such as Year 6 into 7 transition, or improving literacy. Projects can be delivered via a range of mediums, and include student workshops, teacher training and ongoing support for staff delivering the programmes in schools. Email us for more information or to book.

Opportunities for individual students.

For students aged 8 - 19 keen to engage with the Globe over the summer period, we are also offering a new range of workshops and courses designed to prepare students for A Level or University study, or simply to engage with their favourite Shakespeare texts. Sessions range from one hour to two weeks in length and are all delivered online and booked by individual students and their families.

Our one-hour workshops for young people aged 12+ focus on unlocking Macbeth or Romeo and Juliet.

Our two-hour workshops for young people aged 15+ focus on analysing Othello or Hamlet.

Summer Study Days are six hour courses offering 15 – 19 year olds a deep dive into Shakespeare's plays.

Summer Short Courses are perfect for aspiring actors, directors and academics aged 8 - 19.

Our Young Academics' Summer School is for students looking to study English Literature at university.

Aspiring actors and Drama students will love our one and two week Young Actors' Summer Schools.

The last chance to see our Playing Shakespeare with Deutsche Bank production of Macbeth is approaching!
