An abridged script for A Midsummer Night’s Dream for a 1 hour student performance.
Maintains Shakespeare’s original language, rhythm/meter and all key scenes and characters.
Includes a scene summary page to aid student understanding, reference and rehearsal schedule - with suggestions of opportunities to create ensemble involvement.
Pages, scenes and lines numbered for ease of reference and rehearsal.
I directed a cast of students all the way from year 7-13 (ages 11-18), with SEN and MAGT/GAMA, performing this in one hour, including movement/dance sequences as marked in the summary and it was very successful and well received by students, parents, staff and governors. The students involved really enjoyed themselves and rose to the challenge of Shakespeare’s language.
If you’re thinking “my students couldn’t handle the language” - Don’t! They can and will!
