Marvellous Box

Pop-Up Globe School Touring Show consists of performances & post-performance workshops. Professional actors perform an hour of English drama performance inspired by Shakespeare’s “Twelfth Night”. It aims to provide students an experience of drama appreciation and Shakespeare’s work.

Performed by professional actors on imaginative sets with vibrant costumes, this unique, interactive show brought poetry to life for students. Tailored for Primary 3-6, the content is perfectly suited to captivate young minds. Each 50-minute performance accommodated up to 150 children. In this child-friendly adventure, students followed a brother and sister as they embarked on a journey of imagination, using props, costume pieces, and creativity during a sleepless night. The performance featured a delightful mix of familiar and new poems, including some that have been popular in the Hong Kong Schools Music and Speech Association's Speech Festival and others that have never been professionally performed before.

The touring project, which kicked off in 2015 and continued until 2022, brought the magic of Shakespeare to life for young audiences. Each year, S4A visited 15-20 primary and secondary schools, captivating around 150 students aged 8-15 at each performance. These shows featured Shakespearean classics reimagined in modern English, delivered by professional native English actors. The performances aimed to boost students' English language skills, foster personal and intellectual growth, enhance social abilities, and broaden cultural horizons.
