How Not To Teach Shakespeare

My First Theatre Company is looking for an Educational Publisher to help develop this project.

It can be used for teachers as a guide to the subject matter:

  • Context
  • Language
  • Underlying meaning such as pauses, music, and sight
or, it can be used by students as a guide to the subject:
  • Context
  • Language
  • Underlying meaning such as pauses, music and sight

It comprises a DVD which is 52 min long and the written material to accompany it.

Shakespeare is in a unique position as an author as he is taught as both a playwright and as a poet. However when studying his plays they are more often than not gone over word for word like ordinary pieces of literature. In using this product both students and teachers will gain an insight to the material that is not available in a literary deconstructing method. It will enhance the understanding of text presentation and the value of this in a performance medium.
