1.5.2010
On Saturday 1 May 2010, Year 13 Drama and Theatre Studies travelled to the Abbey Theatre in Dublin, the National Theatre of Ireland, to view the theatre’s latest production – Macbeth by William Shakespeare. The visit was part of students’ preparation for Unit 4 (Text in Context) of the A2 Drama and Theatre Studies course. This unit requires students to engage with a contemporary production of a play written in a specific historical period and to compare this production with the original performance context of the play. During their visit, students had the opportunity to discuss the production with members of the cast and Andrea Ainsworth, Voice Director at the Abbey Theatre. Following this, students were treated to a behind the scenes look at the production.
