SSF SA
Shakespeare Schools Festival SA - the ball is rolling: after it's first successful Pilot - version in South Africa 2011, based on the model of the Festival in the UK it is now a constantly growing festival with a national scope. High school pupils are invited to produce thirty-minute versions of Shakespeare plays and perform them in the local theaters.
We engage young actors in the amazing process of taking Shakespeare outside the classroom, and giving high school pupils a chance to learn and appreciate Shakespeare by means of a live performance. Our mission is to improve the understanding of Shakespeare in school, especially as it is such an important part of English syllabus in South African schools.
