Overview

This unique programme has been designed to create forward-thinking conversations about what Shakespeare is and what Shakespeare can be in today’s world. As a student on the only course of its kind in the world, students will study everything from the history of Shakespeare in society, literary criticism and theatre practices; before putting their knowledge in to practice through a newly devised piece of theatre in response to Shakespeare’s work. This creative and ambitious programme is ideal for aspiring academics, actors, writers, directors, arts administrators, as well as anyone with a lively interest in Shakespeare. Students will have the opportunity to study the life and work of Shakespeare and combine it with the thrill of producing new creative work. It brings together academic, theatrical and civic interests in Shakespeare to encourage and challenge students to think about new approaches to Shakespeare in the modern world. Taught by world renowned Shakespearean experts, students will explore the language and drama of Shakespeare, different approaches to performing Shakespeare and the history of Shakespeare in Society. Delivered by and taught at The Shakespeare Institute in Stratford-upon-Avon, the programme makes the most of the unrivalled resources of Shakespeare’s Stratford and involves expert tuition from the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust and the Library of Birmingham. The programme is particularly enhanced by the Institute's collaboration with the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC), offering unique and extensive opportunities to work with RSC artists – predominantly within the Shakespeare and Society and The Shakespeare Ensemble modules.
