400th anniversary of William Shakespeare’s death - great short films
 

Dear Teachers,

 

You probably heard that this year we commemorate 400th anniversary of William Shakespeare’s death (April 23rd). This special anniversary year is a good opportunity to visit a wonderful website called Learn English Teens: http://learnenglishteens.britishcouncil.org/uk-now/literature-uk

 

There are five videos (Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, Much Ado About Nothing, The Tempest) illustrating the most important Shakespeare’s plays in a short and accessible form. For each of the available films there are attached additional online exercises. Each film lasts 4 – 6 minutes. Enjoy!

 

All the very best.

Great links, thank you!
 
I have been enjoying these �Shakespeare Solos � (links below) from The Guardian website. Some of them are really spell-binding!
 
Leading actors perform key Shakespeare speeches in a set of videos that capture the romance, tragedy, villainy and magic of his plays.
 
 
 
You can also watch them all on this YouTube playlist.
 
I think Camille O’Sullivan and David Threlfall might be my favourites. I think I �m going off to learn the Prospero soliloquy now. :-)
