Tudor Globe Theatre Workshop
Architecture Workshops
Architecture Workshops
Quick Overview - This Tudors themed school workshop will introduce your pupils to Shakespeare's famous Globe Theatre in a unique and novel way. Combining history, mathematics, design and technology, problem solving and teamwork, your class will work individually and collaboratively to construct an impressive 3 metre high, and 4 metre wide replica of the Globe Theatre using only dowels and rubber bands to build strong structures. Bring the Elizabethan era to life and reinforce key STEM concepts, like maths and triangulation in engineering and architecture. What makes this workshop truly unique is its experiential approach to teaching about the Tudors - actively recreating the historic theatre with real hands-on learning.


We can visit your school in: East Midlands, West Midlands, London & South East, East of England, South West, North East, North West, Yorkshire, Wales
The world famous Globe Theatre is recreated by pupils, working individually in groups and altogether using nothing more than dowel and rubber bands. They imagine being a 'groudling' watching a play and the rowdiness that was common place during the performances. They learn about the construction of the theatre and the special effects that were used at the time.
We are happy to work with SEN pupils who are part of a class, but if the percentage is greater than 25% we may have to adjust the total number accordingly. Likewise we can run workshops at specialist schools with smaller numbers.
Yes Please let us know more about your group and we will get back to you with more details about the suitability of what we offer.

Workshops need to take place in the school dining hall, gym or sports hall. All the structure are dismantled as part of the workshop experience, so we are able to be out of dining halls in time for the catering staff to put out tables, which if necessary we will assist with.
Photographs are permitted of the workshops, so please ensure batteries in your cameras are fully charged. Video recording of the workshop process is strictly prohibited, as the processes of the workshops are covered by our copyright, but you may video your pupils during the activity.
