Our Performing Arts BTEC students got the chance to welcome professionals from the Royal Shakespeare Company for a week of intensive workshops at the College, culminating in a unique performance of Othello. The students used song, drumming, movement and language to explore the themes and story of the play.

The young people benefited from working with artists with trans-cultural heritage, which was reflected in the work through approaches such as drumming and integration of movement and song. Actor and director of the workshops and performance, Patrice Naiambana said: “This is a fantastic group. The students have thrown themselves into it, and their improvisation is very impressive.”
