Bell Shakespeare

“Doubt thou the stars are fire, doubt that the sun doth move, doubt truth to be a liar;

But never doubt I love.”

Grade 10 students were inspired by lines like these, at the performances and workshops with the Bell Shakespeare Company in August.

The Bell Shakespeare Company is a group of actors who travel around the world performing Shakespeare. We were lucky enough to have performances of Hamlet and Macbeth; each performance was then followed by a workshop.  The company was asked to come to Clarence to help students’ understanding of their Shakespeare studies. Students said they enjoyed the role playing exercises, opinion sessions and performance activities, and it helped their understanding a lot.
