Shakespeare Schools Festival

Coram Shakespeare Schools Foundation is proud to present the world’s largest youth drama festival at Tobacco Factory Theatres – a thrilling theatrical event, featuring a series of abridged Shakespeare plays, performed by local schools.

Witness Shakespeare’s timeless stories brought to life, and support young people from your community as they take to the stage in a unifying evening of live theatre.
