Tri-City students in Grades 6 to 8 can study the prose of William Shakespeare over the School District 43 two-week spring break next month.
Bard on the Beach will bring the company's Young Shakespeareans Workshop to Place des Arts, giving budding thespians a fun theatrical experience with literature penned hundreds of years ago.
Participants will learn about Shakespeare's stories as well as stage acting, voice and movement.
The sessions run from March 21 to April 1, 9 a.m. to noon, and will end with a short performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream for family and friends on April 3.
As well, students will get two tickets to a Bard on the Beach production in Vancouver in June.
Registration is by lottery. To learn more, call 604-664-1636 or visit the centre's website at www.placedesarts.ca.
