Shakespeare Rewired School Workshops

Sky Blue’s Shakespeare Rewired® workshops have been performed across the country at over 300 schools to over 50,000 delighted students.

Primary School Shakespeare Rewired (KS2)

Our Primary School Shakespeare workshops invite pupils to retell classic plays using their words and ideas in an interactive and highly entertaining format. Students become the stars of the show, complete with costumes and props, all expertly guided by our experienced facilitators. Shakespeare workshops for schools (primary) are carefully tailored for Key Stage 2 (KS2) students, helping to develop their speaking and listening skills through drama, and act as a stimulating introduction or end-of-topic celebration to a Shakespeare unit.
