A pair of English teachers are inspired by a visit to the Globe Theatre and a mystery box of resources to create an imaginative and exciting Yr 7 lesson on Romeo and Juliet. Sarah Mark and Lew Rolfe are teach English at Acland Burghley School in North London. We take them to Shakespeare's Globe theatre, where they are put through their acting paces by workshop leader Yolanda Vazquez. She encourages them to make the most of the spoken word when teaching the Bard, and, with the help of a set of objects the two teachers find in the mystery box, provided by theatre director Bill Buckhurst and English Professor Richard Schoch, they embark on planning a practical lesson on Romeo and Juliet for their Year 7s, linking the play to modern urban life
