CSF in the Schools: The Comedy of Errors
grades 3-5
$650-$1200 (subsidy available for qualified schools)
The Comedy of Errors (grades 3-5)
Thru April 2018
30 minutes
Two sets of identical twins are caught up in a whirlwind of mayhem and mistaken identity as they try to untangle a doozy of a confusing day. This performance invites elementary audiences to discover the joy of Shakespeare's comedy, while considering the physical mistreatment and bullying in many of the play's relationships.
Colorado Shakespeare Festival’s touring program uses live performance and the latest school violence research – students improve their Shakespeare literacy AND learn intervention strategies they can use effectively when they see mistreatment happening around them.
How does it work? Professional actors from CSF perform an abridged Shakespeare play onsite at your school (no field trips required), followed by classroom workshops that help students connect situations in the play to situations they face every day. Students can step into the shoes of characters from the play and roleplay creative solutions.
Pricing: $650-$1200
Subsidies available for qualified schools.
