Shakespeare and Young People: Adda with Tracy Irish


On Friday, 23 March 2012, 7pm.
At : Ranan, 8 Sultan Alam Road, Kolkata 700 033

Ranan is pleased to welcome Tracy Irish - from the Education Department of the Royal Shakespeare Company, London - to our space.

Tracy Irish is one of the lead practitioners in the education department at the Royal Shakespeare Company. For the World Shakespeare Festival, she is exploring how and why Shakespeare is taught around the world, focussing on seven countries / cities including Calcutta. Through this adda she is interested in finding out what Shakespeare means for young people in our city, how they relate to him and the current and potential role of schools and arts organisations in that. She will also share her experiences about how Shakespeare is approached, taught and received in the other countries she has visited as part of this RSC project.

For further information on the adda: call 9831256730 or email rananindia@gmail.com
