Macbeth Workshop

A Heartbreak workshop means that the students take control and become the directors. Heartbreak provide the students with a selection of scenes that the actors know, a box full of props and a rail of costumes, a selection of music and lighting states. We then from a blank canvas use students suggestions to develop each scene till it becomes theatrically stimulating.

The students learn about language, key themes, significant relationships, creativity and at the same time have fun interacting with the actors to produce an entertaining piece.

Some of the key themes we have explored with Macbeth are:

• Ambition
• Tyranny 
• Prophecy 
• Hero and Anti-hero
• Kingship
