Walt Whitman High School - Shakespeare Club

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:

    Claudius. But now, my cousin Hamlet, and my son—
    Hamlet. [Aside] A little more than kin, and less than kind.
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I think there ought to be a club in which preachers and journalists could come together and have the sentimentalism of the one matched with the cynicism of the other. That ought to bring them pretty close to the truth.
    Reinhold Niebuhr (1892–1971)
