SHAKESPEARE’S GLOBE EVENTS

2022 marks the 16th Anniversary of Playing Shakespeare with Deutsche Bank, returning from 3 March with a production of Macbeth created especially for young people. This project provides up to 20,000 free tickets to state secondary school children from London and Birmingham. Since the programme started more than 211,000 students have benefited from the programme, which also supports teachers by offering free Continuing

Professional Development (CPD) sessions, workshops, and free learning resources. This production of Macbeth will also be available to all, with the first public performances taking place on the 19 March, so more families and young people can experience this production.

Young performers (11 - 19-yearolds) are invited to audition to join the Globe’s Youth Theatre, a weekly training programme for young performers hungry to engage with acting and performance. Running from January - July 2022, members of the Youth Theatre will work with experienced, professional actors and directors, gaining the unique chance to immerse themselves in the Globe’s approach to the work of Shakespeare and his continued relevance to the modern world. For those who want to learn more about the program, the Globe is offering Free Youth Theatre Taster Sessions on the 20 and 27 November.

In the New Year, Shakespeare’s Globe will continue to support teachers through a variety of online and onsite CPD workshops. Teach Shakespeare offers a practical toolkit for teaching Romeo and Juliet (15 February); Teaching AntiRacist Shakespeare will explore anti-racist approaches to teaching Othello and

The Merchant of Venice (15 January) or Othello and The Tempest (2 March); Shakespeare and Women (29 January and 12 March) will equip teachers with strategies to facilitate conversations with their classes about sexism, misogyny, and depictions of women in Shakespeare. shakespearesglobe.com
