PREP 6 ACT UP AT GLOBE THEATRE!

On Thursday, 5^th November the Prep 6 girls went to the Globe Theatre in London. On arrival, they were greeted by a professional actress, Jen, who took them into a drama studio attached to the Globe Theatre. After a lively warm up, Jen put the girls into groups to act as characters from Macbeth. Prep 6 were transformed into Macbeth and his demanding wife, Lady Macbeth; his unfortunate companion Banquo and, most fun of all, the three weird sisters. Some of the girls adapted to this role especially well with worryingly realistic cackles! The highlight of the day was performing on the actual Globe Theatre stage to an applauding audience – something that most Hollywood actresses never get to experience – but Royal School girls do! The girls said that they now know a lot more about the Globe Theatre and have a better understanding of Shakespeare’s language and his characters. It was a fun day.
