Day 3: Touring the Globe, Exploring the Text

Today everyone toured the Globe and got to go places most people never see. Winding through the halls they saw the theatres from the vomitoriums underneath the Globe stage to the catwalks above it and got a chance to stand on the Lowell Davies Festival stage for the first time.

Everyone got a chance to read lines in Shakespeare's English and Neruda's Spanish today as each person took on a myriad of roles and took a shot at the Prince's warning speech to the warring Capulets and Montagues, "What, ho! you men, you beasts . . . If ever you disturb our streets again, Your lives shall pay the forfeit of the peace."
