On Friday 31st January, the A level Classical Civilisation students attended a drama festival at Warwick University. It was an exciting opportunity for them to meet students from schools all over Britain to share their passion for ancient Greek theatre. The day consisted of a broad range of lectures and seminars and culminated in a production of Oedipus the King, performed by students studying classical courses at the university. We look forward to attending this event in 2021.
'I thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Warwick University and the lectures were incredibly interesting. It was wonderful to hear experts talk about ancient Greek theatre and hear about different interpretations of Oedipus. The production of Oedipus was also very good and it was interesting to see how the students interpreted it!” Alice B, Year 12
