Shakespeare at school

 

The Oxford Pocket Theatre came to school like last year to perform for students of 1st and 2nd ESO a hilarious adaptation of Shakespeare's tragedy Macbeth (oops!! we should have said The Scottish Play!! what was it that we had to do to conjure the bad luck?)

 

 

 In this version, while writing Macbeth William Shakespeare and his wife Ann try to make a living working at a fast food restaurant owned by Chef Duncan. However, they have no staff to work with and they recruit members of the public to work as cleaners and cooks

Before they know it, everyone will be involved in a tragedy full of ambition, treachery and murder: How will Macbeth kill Duncan? How much blood will Macbeth and Lady Macbeth have on their hands? How many bodies willl the Witches sweep up with their broomsticks? and how will Malcom get his revenge?
