Shakespeare's Library is a new theatrical trail for primary schools commissioned by the Barbican as part of the World Shakespeare Festival. Quotes from the Bard's famous works have gone missing from Shakespeare’s Library and are lost in the Barbican’s concrete jungle. Now the Librarians desperately need your help to capture the quotes before they are lost forever! Your class will transform into four teams, each challenged to discover the missing quotes from famous Shakespeare plays. Come prepared for adventure, work together, trust your wits and let your imagination run wild! The Shakespeare’s Library experience will involve solving cryptic clues, storytelling, dressing up, and printmaking. If your team succeeds in the challenge, each of you will leave with your own personal Shakespeare’s Library Membership Card! To book your school group onto a Shakespeare’s Library trail, please contact Creative Learning at creative.learning@barbican.org.uk. For primary school groups only. Age guidance 9+ Limited availability. Commissioned by Barbican Guildhall Creative Learning. Shakespeare’s Library is part of the World Shakespeare Festival, which is produced by the Royal Shakespeare Company for London 2012 Festival.
