Education
Education is at the heart of what we do. From the Shakespearience summer camps to our main stage productions, students are fully integrated into our programming. We provide a nurturing yet challenging environment that helps young people find their voice and take pride in their accomplishments.
Throughout the year we also offer occasional workshops and classes for adults developing expanded performance opportunities to the community. Young or old, actor or technician, or simply a lover of language and theater, we welcome you into our creative community! |
In-School WorkshopsOur workshops are a great preparation tool to familiarize students with language and themes of a particular play before they see our production, or to deepen their experience of the play after seeing an Advice To The Players performance.

NH Festival of ShakespeareFestival is an education program where students work with a directing team of teaching artists who lead the teens through a language-based exploration of Shakespeare. At the end of 10 weeks, the groups come together to showcase their work.
