They were keen to watch the play live on stage, having studied it in their English class. They were very critical of the director’s decisions and interpretation of specific scenes which was positive to see them having such a strong personal opinion on a text. Students found this a truly valuable experience, not only for bringing the play to life, but also to see a creative interpretation that resonates with modern issues such as gender roles and female oppression.
