Description
Shakespeare Canada presents 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'. This version of the classic Shakespeare play has been adapted to modern English for an easier understanding for students of all ages!
The work of William Shakespeare introduces children to a significant part of literary and cultural heritage. His works are considered timeless classics, and exposure to them can provide a solid foundation for appreciating both literature and theatre. Theatre allows young audiences to step into someone else's shoes and see life from a different point of view, offering lessons of empathy and cultural relativity. Shakespeare Canada will arrive at your school with their own sets, lighting, and sound. This show can be performed on any stage or in any gym.
