At Home with Shakespeare
Home School Programs
For the 2010-2011 academic year, Seattle Shakespeare Company is offering a full slate of home school Shakespeare classes! Whether you’re interested in acting classes, specific skills, or backstage production classes, we have an option for you. We even have classes specifically geared toward younger students (age 7-11). Check out our offerings, pass this along to other home school parents and groups, and double-check the enrollment deadlines for our full selection of classes!
Register soon, because each session has a minimum number of students needed for it to take place, and a maximum enrollment limit!

At 10:30am, students will see a student matinee of one of our mainstage shows, followed by a post-show discussion with the actors. After a brief lunch break, there will be a 90-minute post-show workshop. Students will be introduced to Shakespeare's text and the specific play being performed, participate in a Q&A session with members of the cast, and spend time analyzing and exploring themes of the play.
Cost: $40 per student (includes workshops, talkback, and matinee), $10 per additional student matinee ticket.
