Students worked alongside a visiting director from the RSC, as well as staff from Norwich Theatre to put on designated scenes from Shakespeare’s famous comedy Midsummer Night’s Dream.

Other associate schools from the cluster were assigned different scenes and we came together across Monday and Tuesday to put it all together on the Norwich Playhouse stage. Acle’s students were tasked with putting on the mechanicals scene and rose to the task of staging this brilliantly! 

The performance was on the Tuesday evening and there was a sell-out crowd! Parents and family members were given free tickets to see the show, and they all left extremely proud of their children, as were we as staff!

It was a genuine joy to see our talented young actors perform their scenes that they have been working on for weeks and I know they felt extremely proud of themselves too!
