The Pocket
Oxford Theatre Company was at our center last Thursday 20th February to perform
Romeo and Juliet for all the students of ESO.
Queen
Elizabeth I telephones Shakespeare demanding that he performs his latest
tragedy for her Romeo and Juliet, or she will chop off his head. Unfortunately
, however, the Puritans have just burst into theatre, closing it down and
placing all the actors. Shakespeare and his girlfriend, Anne Hathaway, are left
into no other choice than to perform the play themselves with a little help
from our students . They discover a
masked ball, a barmy balcony scene, some serious sword fighting and a crazy
horse chase, not to mention learning how to make a tragic death scene really
tragic!!!
