Shakespeare Club
Shakespeare Festival Every other year, Whitman holds a schoolwide "Shakespeare Festival" one day in April honoring Shakespeare's life and his work. The festival is organized by both students and the school's English department.
Productions The Shakespeare Club began producing full, student run productions in the 2007-2008 school year. The first was The Taming of the Shrew, in March 2008, followed by Macbeth in October 2008 and A Midsummer Night's Dream in March 2009. They performed As You Like It in April 2010, and in May 2011 they put on Twelfth Night. All's Well That Ends Well was performed in December 2011.

Famous quotes containing the words shakespeare and/or club:
“We do not come, as minding to content you,
Our true intent is. All for your delight
We are not here.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“In another year I’ll have enough money saved. Then I’m gonna go back to my hometown in Oregon and I’m gonna build a house for my mother and myself. And join the country club and take up golf. And I’ll meet the proper man with the proper position. And I’ll make a proper wife who can run a proper home and raise proper children. And I’ll be happy, because when you’re proper, you’re safe.”
—Daniel Taradash (b. 1913)
