About Shakespeare Schools Festival
Coram Shakespeare Schools Foundation is proud to present the world’s largest youth drama festival at The Roses Theatre.
Join us in November 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.

Coram Shakespeare Schools Foundation is a national cultural education charity, dedicated to transforming young lives through the unique power of Shakespeare. This year, we celebrate our 25th anniversary, and for the next 25 months, our goal is to work with 25,000 students across our programmes, giving them the confidence and essential skills to succeed in life.
Our Theatre Festival will give students from more than 350 schools a platform to further their oracy and teamworking skills, grow in self-esteem and express themselves on a professional stage.
