St Cuthbert's High School

“Way down Hadestown, way down under the ground…” 🎶 A powerful reminder that storytelling is as much about how a story is told as what is told: myth reimagined through music, staging, and voice.🎭 Act Two of our #LitonTour complete. @StCuthberts6th #StCuthbertsFormingGreatMen

“Suit the action to the word, the word to the action” (Hamlet: Act 3; Scene 2). Extraordinary energy and vigour at our study day @The_Globe this afternoon! 🎭 👏 @StCuthberts6th #StCuthbertsFormingGreatActors #StCuthbertsFormingGreatShakespeareans

The final part of our A Level Study Day @The_Globe was an acting workshop, where we explored the depth of feeling in Lear and Goneril in Act 1, Scene 4- fantastic energy from all 👏 Huge thanks to our brilliant practitioner, Susan, for such an engaging day! #StCuthbertsAtTheGlobe

Next up on our A Level study day at @The_Globe was a seminar where we looked at different interpretations of ‘King Lear’. There was SO much discussion and engagement with our fantastic practitioner, Susan. 🎭 #StCuthbertsShapingShakespeareans #StCuthbertsFormingGreatMen

Act Two of our annual #LitonTour trip continued with a tour of the Wooden O @The_Globe where we were really stage-struck by how they bring it full circle. We focused on acting in the round and the shared space between actor and audience 🎭 @StCuthberts6th #StCuthbertsCommitment

Walking in the footsteps of the great Bard himself - morning mooch through Shakespeare’s theatre-land. The Globe wasn’t London’s first theatre; that was the Red Lion (1567). Burbage’s “The Theatre” (1576) was the first successful playhouse. #LitonTour #StCuthbertsFormingGreatMen

Our Year 11 received their final All Stars awards today in assembly. A fantastic group of young men who have truly lived out the values of the 4Cs - we are very proud of you all. ✨ #StCuthbertsFormingGreatMen #StCuthbertsFaith #StCuthbertsCommitment #StCuthbertsYr11

“We are all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the stars.” Some inspiring words from Oscar Wilde as the sun sets on Act One of this year’s #LitonTour trip. 🎭 30000 steps - not bad! 💪 @StCuthbertsCC #StCuthbertsFormingGreatMen

Arrived at St Katherine’s Dock after a walk through the city of London. Did you know that early modern theatres needed to be built outside the city walls because they were considered sinful and full of vice? 🎭 @StCuthbertsCC #LitonTour #StCuthbertsFormingGreatMen #20000steps
