Explore the hullabaloo inside the Forest of Arden with a fun and practical Family Workshop about Shakespeare’s As You Like It, designed for children aged 9–11 and their grown-ups.

You’ll visit one of our rehearsal rooms to take part in an interactive workshop for the whole family. Using a range of activities and games designed to draw out elements of the play’s language, characters and themes, you’ll discover Shakespeare’s very own rom-com.

Workshops will be led by one of the Globe’s highly experienced practitioners, who include actors, teachers and directors.

This workshop does not include a visit to the Globe Theatre. Extend your experience with a separate peek inside our unique theatre on a Globe Theatre Guided Tour.

 These workshops are designed for children aged 9-11 and their grown-ups. All under 18s must be accompanied by a ticket-holding adult throughout the workshop, and we encourage everyone to take part together.

Four people are aboard a giant paper boat against a bright blue, cloudy sky and a sea of dark blue material. Two are standing; one in Shakespearean dress holding a paper skull, another in a purple fairy costume holding a paper mast. The other two are crouched, with one wearing a paper hat, pointing out to sea, and another looking through a paper telescope, scratching their chin.
