Each summer school will be directed by one of our Globe Education Practitioners. Our practitioners are experienced actors, directors, writers or academics, who are specially trained in delivering work each year for our summer schools.

Young Actors’ Summer School
This course will develop the skills you need when approaching your classical texts for drama school auditions. You will take part in masterclasses with internationally renowned theatre practitioners, and develop your acting skills through working with an experienced director on selected scenes from Shakespeare’s plays in a creative and supportive environment. You will then share your scenes at the end of the week on one of the Globe stages.
Young Academics’ Summer School
This is the perfect course if you are interested in deepening and enriching your understanding of Shakespeare and the unique spaces for which he wrote. It would be the ideal first step if you are looking to extend your interest and understanding of Elizabethan and Jacobean drama.

There is no need to send an audition video. To apply for our Young Actors’ Summer School course, we ask that you fill in an application form once applications are open.
