Overview
PALS magical adaptation tells the enchanting tale of four star-crossed lovers lost in a magical forest. Not far behind them, Oberon King of the Fairies and his sidekick, Puck, unleash a series of mischievous tricks by which love is transformed, misplaced and finally restored.

Benefits to Children's Learning & Development
This production will encourage students to take an interest in both the works of William Shakespeare and life in Elizabethan times.  We believe in making Shakespeare accessible to people of all ages and many of the issues and morals in his stories are still relevant to youngsters today.

Our performance will provide teachers with some material that would be ideal to either launch or finish a topic on Shakespeare and the Elizabethan era.

The Cox Report 1989 states; “Literature has an important role to play in improving abilities in speaking and listening, writing and reading…”
“Approaches which actively engage pupils working on texts are far more likely to lead to enjoyment and understanding.
