Bring your study of Shakespeare’s bloody tragedy Macbeth to life in this practical GCSE Boost day for ages 14–16. 

Start your day with a peek inside the Globe Theatre and hear about the history of Shakespeare’s London and the theatrical world he created. 

Then, in one of our rehearsal studios, jump into an interactive workshop led by a highly experienced education practitioner and explore the play’s language, characters and themes using a range of acting techniques and drama activities. You’ll develop key skills and a practical toolkit that you can carry forward into your study and exams. 

You’ll complete your experience by watching a matinee performance of Macbeth in the Globe itself. 

Please note that these workshops are designed for young people aged 14 – 16 attending independently. Parents and guardians can enjoy the Globe’s food and drinks offer during the workshop.
