Home Learning with the RSC

Whether you're a parent looking for inspiration or a student wanting to get creative, the RSC has got lots of resources and ideas you can use. Shakespeare’s play King Lear was first performed in 1606, shortly after a major outbreak of plague had shut down much of London, so it’s possible he wrote the play during that time. But if you’re not feeling inspired to write your own play just yet, below is a link to all of the content they already have that will help you to keep learning about his.
