Shakespeare Enters

We're only at the halfway mark... Yet so much has happened in these past three weeks of summer school here in Cambridge. However, I'd like to save such stories until the end of this journey, to deliver to you in one fatal swoop of madness.

Thus, for now - as a little taster - I wish to present you with the script my A2 class crafted together with very little input from myself, in which they then had to act out in front of a live audience. On stage. It truly was a thing of beauty. Shakespeare himself would be proud (I imagine). I was definitely very proud of them.

It was lovingly referred to as Shakespeare Enters, and here it is:
