The Globe Players - 'Macbeth'

26 March 2026

Dear Parent/Carer,

Year 10 ‘Macbeth’ Performance
Friday 1 May, 9.40 - 11.00am

We are delighted to be able to welcome theatre company The Globe Players back to Isleworth & Syon to perform their brilliant adaptation of ‘Macbeth’ by William Shakespeare.

This is a wonderful opportunity for students to see a live performance of the play they are currently studying, with actors providing additional information about the play throughout the performance. 

The study of ‘Macbeth’ is one of the core GCSE set texts for the AQA English Literature Paper 1 specification. Students will study this in depth in Year 10 during this term and will revisit it through homework and revision sessions throughout Year 11 before sitting their final examinations. Live theatre is proven to help students understand the rich language, ideas, and themes in Shakespeare’s work. It will undoubtably support your son/ward’s studies in Year 10 and through to their final GCSEs.

This performance will take place in the morning of Friday 1 May during their usual period 2 lesson.

We hope your son/ward enjoys this lively and informative production. 

Yours sincerely, 

Mrs K Axten
Deputy Curriculum Leader – English
