Romeo and Juliet Murder Mystery

A murder mystery to help engage students learning Shakespeare.
Students will have to work together in groups, to come up with a Pitch and a Re-enactment of the events they believe have taken place, and whom should be arrested for the crime.

Students will use dramatic techniques to explore each scenario they come up with.
Students will be able to create closing arguments for their prime suspect
Students will be able to retell and explore the story of Romeo and Juliet; the events that happened and discuss the relationships within.

Names have been changed, to ensure students do not find out until the end.

Comes with Teacher Guidance as well as powerpoint, pieces of evidence, planning sheet for students etc.

Works well if you can create the scene in the drama classroom too.
