Othello: A Level Revision Boost
About the event
Bring your study of Shakespeare’s searing tragedy Othello to life with this A Level Boost, designed for those aged 16-18. Jump into an interactive workshop led by an expert practitioner and explore how to actively approach Shakespeare, using an anti-racist lens. Through a range of techniques and drama activities, you’ll develop key skills and a practical toolkit that you can carry forward into your studies, essays and exams. This A Level Boost is best suited to A Level students who already have knowledge of the text and assessment objectives, whether at final exam or mock exam level. You will leave the session with an in-depth understanding of the play as a performed text. This workshop is taught through Globe Performance Practice, giving students a unique understanding of the performing conditions of the text both in Elizabethan England and today; and through the perspective of a Shakespearean actor. This means students will be on their feet, not stuck behind desks in a classroom. However, links between the activities and the exams will be signposted by our expert practitioners. Please note that these workshops are designed for young people, aged 16-18, attending independently.…
