Education
The Utah Shakespeare Festival has many educational programs, from Summer and Fall Classes to a school tour. A Shakespeare competition takes place each October, with schools from across the United States participating. The Shakespeare for Jr. Actors program, for ages 11 to 15, gives students an opportunity to learn about the plays of the season and see them all. At the end of the session, students perform scenes from the three Shakespeare plays.
