Literature

The literature plays program was created to enable students who offer literature in English to enjoy the stories they study in class, to visualize the plays and novels they read in class, and to pass with flying colors when the final exams come.

Since we started, more than 90,000 students have watched us perform the plays they read and bring to life the characters they love, admire, or loath.
We continue to work with schools, private sponsors, authors, organizations, and publishers to make sure that literature is not only a subject but a way of life.

What else happens at our shows;

This is an educational event and as such, we have senior teachers available to discuss with students after each set book performance. The discussions are hinged around what students should focus on (academically) while they read, interpret, and understand texts.  The teachers also discuss examinable areas and question approaches. They also discuss the complex themes, ideas, and other aspects of the texts.
