RSC Twelfth Night Production 7th November 2022
The Royal Shakespeare Company are touring with their 'First Encounters', Shakespeare for Younger Audiences, with a production of Twelfth Night.
We have been very fortunate to have secured tickets to this performance, 7th November at Sudbury Ormiston Academy, and will be taking the whole of Neptune Class. 
Each year the children in Neptune Class study, learn and perform a Shakespeare play, this will be an excellent opportunity to experience Twelfth Night as performed by the RSC, before they perform their own production during the Summer Term 2023.
 
First Encounter Productions are created to give 7-13 year olds a fantastic first experience of Shakespeare, using edited versions of the original language and performed in just 90 minutes!
 
"Some are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon 'em."
 
The children thoroughly enjoyed the performance of Twelfth Night and have wrote thank-you letters to show their appreciation. 
Some quotes from the children;   "...another thing I enjoyed was the costumes, especially Feste's one because it was so bright and colourful, which definitely fits the character well." - Rufus
"The plays actors were brilliant. I loved how Malvolio was a woman! She fitted perfectly for Malvolio." - Cara
