Coram Shakespeare Schools Festival

Coram Shakespeare Schools Foundation is proud to present the world’s largest youth drama festival at Greenwich Theatre.

Join us for a thrilling theatrical event, featuring a series of abridged Shakespeare plays, performed by local schools. See Shakespeare’s timeless stories brought to life, and support young people from your community as they take to the stage in a unique evening of live theatre.

“If Shakespeare had been sitting in the audience, he would have loved everything he saw."
Ben Willbond (Ghosts, Horrible Histories, The Thick of It)
