CHS SHAKESPEARE FESTIVAL TODAY

From the Columbia High School Shakespeare Club:

This year marks the Fourteenth Annual CHS Shakespeare Festival and the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death. It is an all-day event including members of the Shakespeare Club, various English classes, and anyone willing to perform. 

Every English class will be brought to the auditorium for forty-five minutes of Shakespearean immersion, presented in assorted scenes, videos, and interactive games. 

The festival showcases Shakespeare’s classics along with several of his lesser known plays. This year’s festival will feature a number of comedies: the outrageous porter’s monologue from Macbeth and the romantic hijinks of Much AdoAbout Nothing, as well as a few more serious pieces from tragedies Titus Andronicus and Othello. 

The festival will take place today in the Columbia High School
auditorium and will be running throughout the school day. 
 
Admission is free, parents are welcome, and hilarity anticipated!
