Behind The Scenes

Reviews

The experience was truly one of the best. Our students thoroughly enjoyed it and shared that they never thought that Shakespeare’s text could be so interesting. They also learnt that everything he wrote has a meaning behind it and now have a better appreciation for his work! Thank you Sight Lines!

Secondary School Teacher

The duration of the show was just right. The actors were very professional and our students enjoyed the play a lot. Could see that they were engaged in it! They also shared that their love for Literature has deepened. And for that, Sight Lines deserves all the credit!

Secondary School Teacher

The production was amazing. Even though my students are not studying Shakespeare in school, it's crucial for them to be exposed to Shakespeare and this was the perfect opportunity. The introduction at the start to highlight the literary devices that are so beautifully weaved into the text was great and I loved how the director broke it down for the students.
