Shakespeare for Kids Comes to Lionheart Theatre

Lionheart hosts Atlanta Shakespeare Company to introduce children to the bard in a fun show.

Lionheart Theatre Company will host the Atlanta Shakespeare Company in a fun-filled introduction to the magic of Shakespeare for elementary school children.

Shakespeare For Kids is dynamic and wacky, 50-minute show that excites children about learning the classics. The production is filled with music, mayhem, friendly sock puppets, crazy costumes and a magic β€œplot easel” named Pleasel. Your family will be quoting Shakespeare and singing in the aisles.

β€œWe’re thrilled that ASC is coming to Lionheart,” said Sean Casey, Lionheart’s drama camp director. β€œStudents learn that Shakespeare is both understandable and fun. They’ll start to see that many of the good guys, villains and plot twists that they see in contemporary shows like β€˜The Lion King’ or β€˜Batman’ were first brought to life by Shakespeare.”
