Get Janelle to the Globe!

I have been selected as a member of Shakespeare Globe Centre NZ Teachers Go Global 2018 (SGCNZ TGG).

SGCNZ TGG 2018 will travel to the UK in the July school holidays departing Auckland early on Friday 6 July and arriving back in Auckland on Wednesday 25 July 2018

What is SGCNZ?

Founded in 1991, Shakespeare Globe Centre New Zealand is a life skills enhancing organisation, using Shakespeare as a tool. With education and development of potential of all ages as principal focuses, participants in its activities go on to

become leaders, high achievers, and at the same time, great team players. They give back to the community in a multitude of ways, playing key roles in growing the arts and making positive contributions to various professions and society as a whole. Teachers play a vital role in this. Continual communications from SGCNZ Alumni of all ages reflect the benefits in a wide variety of ways.

The Trip

From Friday 6 July until we return to NZ on 25 July, this group will participate in a comprehensive and exciting ‘package’, based principally at Shakespeare’s Globe, of workshops, Q&A sessions

about the plays with actors and directors, behind the scene tours of the Globe, Rose and other theatres, observe sessions with local Southwark schools with Globe Education Practitioners, teach themselves and watch performances.

We will also have the rare chance to be rehearsed by a Globe Director and perform 45 minutes of scenes from one of the 2018 Globe Season plays (yet to be announced). We will have the amazing opportunity to perform for invited public on the Globe stage at 11.15pm on Thursday 20 July 2018.

My Dream

As many of you well know, theatre has been my passion and my focus since I was a wee 5 year old. This really is a dream come true for me and as I plan and imagine, the more excited I am getting! It's an amazing opportunity for me and I am tickled pink to be a part of such an incredible life changing experience.
