Shakespeare...Abridged Monday, July 2, 2007  Ali: “At 7:00, we traveled to the Arts Theatre to take in a performance of The Complete Works of William Shakespeare Abridged….What an entertaining glimpse into the almost endless amount of work that Shakespeare produced. Three hilarious men proved to be all the show needed to keep the audience involved for 97 minutes. I think it would be quite the experience to purchase front row tickets for high school students and let them be surprised with the actors speaking right to them throughout the entire show!”

About the Adventure “You find no man, at all intellectual, who is willing to leave London. No, Sir, when a man is tired of London, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford.” - Samuel Johnson (1777) From June 22nd to July 2nd, eight students and their professor will explore firsthand sites of primary interest to English teachers throughout greater London, Oxford, and Stratford-on-Avon. While doing so, they'll write about the value of curriculum as lived experience in the context of English language and literature, critique the educational value of contemporary British artistic and cultural events, and go on to develop a plan for teaching and learning the English language arts that addresses experiential learning and authentic reading, writing, listening, and speaking activities. Moravian sends student teachers to inner city London neighborhoods each semester, and this course will allow registrants to explore in detail ways to use the city's resources to construct curriculum.
