On Wednesday 19th, March Year 8 went to the Globe Theatre to see William Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice. We journeyed into Central London and saw lots of sights on the way like the Golden Hind and St Paul's Cathedral.The play was better than reading it in class because it was funny and had a modern twist. We also had the opportunity to see it in the theatre that people would have visited in the Elizabethan times.My favourite part of the play was the beginning because it involved the audience singing and dancing. It was great fun with everyone singing Pharell's Happy with the actors! I enjoyed the Merchant of Venice and I would love for the opportunity to see it again. I learnt a lot about the treatment of Jewish people during Shakespearean times.
