16 April, 2 p.m. (Gallery/Third Balcony, corridor off Moliera Street) – At Shakespeare's dressing room

In April we will travel to London to have a look around the Globe. We will take a peek into a 17th-century dressing room and props storage, learn more about the life of William Shakespeare, and explore familiar themes from his plays. And when we have fully transformed into Hamlets, Othellos and Juliets, we will play a few scenes out and pose for cameras.
